re: #178 O say, does that Star Spangled Banner yet wave..

There’s an option 3, you knuckle-dragging Neanderthal: You raise their wages, and you make a little bit less money for the company because the cost eats into your margins a little bit. And if your margins are so razor thin that you can’t afford to take a hit to pay your people a living wage, then your business is just a few steps away from failure in the first place.

Pay 3 people $15/hr, accept a smaller initial profit out of that but end up making more in the long term because better pay motivates your employees to be more productive?
