There's nothing to evade the government sets a minimum wage and some people have to work for it. You probably are not going to believe it but there are a lot of small business people who are making less than minimum wage. I've been in business for my self and most of the time my employees made more than I did. You're dead wrong about most of the owners of a franchise. They have to pay the big corporation for the use of it's name and they have to purchase most of their supplies from the Corp.. The owner is the last one to get paid. Very few first time franchisees succeed. Most first time business people are unsuccessful. Who looks out for them. No one! Every time the minimum wage goes up a business that was just barely getting buy folds...and all those minimum wage workers are out looking for some one else to pay them minimum wage or they go on welfare so we can pay them. No business man is guaranteed anything and the government does nothing for them except add bull$#!t to their cost of doing business!!

If all these jobs are meant for teens as you said, who’s serving you up while their all in school Mr. ontap? What about all the food joints open all night?

Tell me Mr. ontap, on top of the 20 million fast food jobs, are the 30+ million retail jobs, which basically pay at or near minimum wage, also meant for teenagers?

Why are you evading the questions??

Again, if someone actually works in a job, should they at least be paid enough for the very basic of things like rent, food and utilities?

Are the bare basics now considered luxuries in today’s America?

Why are you evading these questions?

I had no idea. I wonder why you see so many FF franchises if it’s that bad a deal.
i mean it seems like an owner would be wiser to not open a FF franchise and instead work at one.
Thank God these public service minded patriots make the sacrifice. Lol
