    Here's what I'm talking about: A letter to the editor in Today's Seattle Times, in regards to the closure of some Pho restaurants that can't make it with the new minimum wage, poses the question:

    "In any case, the brute economics of the question are no more important than the moral issue — should businesses that depend on paying poverty wages continue to exist?"

    And there you have it: Sawant's Mantra. If you're a business owner, your employees are now your children, and you are responsible for the entirety of their well-being. "Before I lift a finger, pay my rent and buy my groceries." The entitlement never ends.

    Shitstain, who the fuck eats Pho? Don't you think the closure of a Pho restaurant is more because no one wants to eat that shit? It's funny when people blame the government for their business failing when really it's just a fucktarded business model.

    My biggest issue: what about the elderly on social security? We raise minimum wage by 40% while social security hasn't seen a raise in over 3 years. The poor get poorer I guess.

    Honda says prices aren't rising and businesses aren't failing. When confronted with facts that say otherwise, he says, "well, those businesses suck anyways."

    Derek: Did you check Hondo's ID? Sure it wasn't a learner's permit?

    One other thing Hondo's obviously never done: Paid payroll tax.

    Cali just said they'll begin to raise the minimum wage. Gov. Moonbeam had negotiations and got it through. He negotiated with the unions. Seems he left out the wage payers.

    Shitstain can't read. And how is a comment on a newspaper website about Pho restaurants considered "facts"? The point, that is lost on you, is causality between minimum wage increase and businesses closing, which you are far from demonstrating.

    I do own a fast food restaurant of all things. It's a side gig and I owned it back when the minimum wage was last increased from 5.15 to 7.25. It didn't have an effect then and won't hurt us now.

    People like you make me chuckle, thanks for the laff.

    The law won't hurt under-the-table, cash-preferred guys like you who cheat on their taxes anyway, Hondo. It only hurts honest businesses.

    Should I be impressed that you can look up Wikipedia articles?

    Is it wrong?

    yet another hondo lie.

    Scrubbing toilets at McDonald's isn't ownership.

    The minimum wage in Washington state has never been $7.25... ever.
