I got a better idea than all the ex-waitstaffs' calls for minimum wage (never thought I'd see so much of that on FR).

How about we just eliminate the Min wage and pay people what they are worth regardless of profession.

Also, the waiters[esses] that I know could work for no wage and still be better (alot better) than min wage.

"Worth" by what measure? If the labor is treated as a commodity, it will lower the wages to the subsistance level (or below for some limited and turbulent time). This is how the invisible hand of the free market works - it makes people/commodities as cheap as possible.
