No, I'm denying that you have any.

So you have a pompously arrogant and despotic attitude.
So what? We've already established that fact.

Let's do it this way, one at a time, then we can nail down those opinions.

OK, fine by me.

1) Do you support any minimum wage laws?

No, I do not. I believe that market forces of supply and demand should determine wages and benefits.
However, I also support policies that balance the conflicting interests of business and labor. To that end, I am opposed to flooding the labor market with cheap, immigrant labor and/or child labor. Furthermore, I also support workers' rights to freedom of association and organization to negotiate contracts on their own behalf.

Generality which says nothing at all specific. It basically describes a belief that government should use force to acheive what it conciders "balance" between two consenting parties who do not desire government intervention.

2) Do you support government set prices?
