Why is minimum wage bad?

[torchbearer]

Factually speaking, eat a cat fish and net some craw--dads!

I do that as often as possible. A country boy can survive... and be educated too.

I think the genetics of the creoles have grown to thrive on crab boil, beer, and tons of salt.
I would compare going from eaiting louisiana food all your life to eating something in another state to a salt water fish getting dropped into a fresh water pond.

You obviously don't own your own business.
i will pay my employee what we agree to in a work contract. we are two individual soveriegns, we will work out our own contracts.
The government has no authority to tell me what i can and can't pay someone. It's my property, my money, my business. If I don't manage it well. If I buy cheap labor, and I provide piss poor service. I will fail.
If I compete for the best employees, if I pay a competitive rate, if i provide a good service, i will survive as a business.
That is free markets. All you need is healthy competition.

I said minimum wage is no more price setting than an IPO.
Why does everything get turned into a lecture?

For those who are reading the thread. not just for you.
a common mistake made all the time.
The lecture is to try to get enough info for any questions that may be in the reader's mind that may not get brought up in other context.

My best buddy for years was a Sonnier. We camped and backpacked for years. Wherever we were, his family sent us catfish.

It was always a treat.

What parish was he from? I know many Sonniers from Evangeline Parish. Some are ever famous cajun musicians.

I don't know. We never got into that.
I do know that he was a builder in his home state for a few years.

I talked to him about 6 months ago, and he was living in Albuquerque.

Shooting, raising wolves, and building a home.

Frank was the best snow camper ever.

Barrelled down the sides of mountains,

Small business is volatile. things aren't so simple.

I lost my best workers to the mining industry.

Can't compete with 120,000 pa.
