Excellent, you used good old conservative logic and didn't leech off taxpayers to subsidize your low wages. Good job!
However how mnay of the low-wage, lib earners use that mentality?

Well, I work for a moderately large and quickly growing upscale grocery retail chain and I can tell you a $13 effective min wage with benefits would make us close our doors down and we are far more profitable % wise than Target or Walmart. Most of our stores are only 25k sq ft though so we wouldnt' be effected by this. We do have 2 stores in the Chicago area.
How many do leech? A lot. Does that justify raising prices for literally everyone in town lowering everyone's real wages to force this onto Target & Walmart? Nope.
