Lemme guess, you read "The Communist Manifesto".

Wrong. That would be a good one to experiment with flushing down my toilet. Enough flushes and it would start disintegrating and might stop up the thing and I'd have to call Roto Rooter. They probably make a living wage. I ain't that stupid. I have to make use of their services from time to time, but I do everything in my power to keep costs down, unlike some companies who like to send their best employees on free cruises and write it off as a business expense. I can't write off Roto Rooter.

You're an anti-business, anti-capitalist, Bolshevik.

Wrong. I love mom 'n pop capitalism which has all but disappeared, a few big companies like Alcoa who are truly a benefit to the community even though they are unionized, and entrepreneurialships who don't have a whole fleet of company cars. That's my kind of capitalism. And I have questions about your conservatism.

Good. Only a good Bolshevik or Nazi goose steps to the party line. I think for myself and have eyes to see what is happening to ordinary people all around me from all walks of life.

And I have questions about your character. You sound like a p***k.

You keep talking trash to everybody but you still haven't answered this simple question:

Why is a $100 minimum wage not logical?
Answer: Because everybody who makes less then $100 would simply become unemployed and many of the businesses that use such employees would shut down.

Now stay with me here...
Why is a $17 minimum wage not logical?
Answer: (fill in this space)

You mean the mom 'n' pop capitalism (oh please, can the left finally kill the mom and pop crap?) that in most small towns were the RICHEST folks around and owned the grocery and other stores like Western Auto, Sears catalouge store, etc. that had a HUGE markup on everything?

Again, my life experience trumps your BS crap you got indoctrinated with. I worked in the biggest grocery store in a 3,800 town in high school. We had HUGE markups on things like toiletries, beef, etc. Wal-Mart came in around 1975. Did we go out of business? HECK NO!

We thrived. Competition does that. Did our markup go down. Yes. Thus we didn't get $2 for toothpaste anymore when it really cost $1. Besides, we only got that when people didn't buy it 35 miles away in a much bigger city, Ft. Smith, AR, where they had more stores like K-Mart.

I find it funny none of this crap you peddle was around then K-Mart ruled the world with their "low prices".

I go back to that little town in Arkansas sometimes that now has 5,000 people and their is the same Wal-Mart, the same grocery I worked at, the same stores that were there in 1975 PLUS a Sonic, a Taco-Tico, a KFC/Taco Bell, a Pizza Hut, etc. Not one....NOT ONE of the businesses I grew up with are gone. Even the little old drug store on the corner of Main and Third street.
