"The minimum wage doesn't help the worker at the expense of the owner. It helps the more productive workers at the expense of the less productive workers."
No. It hurts the more productive workers by paying them the same as the lazy a**holes. After working at McDonalds I feel very strongly about this. I was getting paid the same as people who were lazy and awful workers.
That minimum wage hurts the less productive? Seems like it'd benefit them more as they are paid higher for the actual work they do, as they do less work overall.
I'm with you liberatheist. A less productive worker will be fired or laid off at some point of forced higher pay because it costs the business more to keep them than they earn. The average worker (let alone the exceptional worker) will get raises...
How can a business stay in business if they don't have a salary structure? If I'm forced to pay my employees more than what they're producing I'll go out of business.
