Where do you think the restaurant gets the money to pay the minimum wage.
I'm trying to understand the minimum wage argument but it sounds to me like people are complaining about quality of life. In this country, you'd be HARD PRESSED to go without a roof over your head, food in your belly and clothes on your back. Health care is also accessible to the truly needy. What I'm hearing from people is that they want to live larger so they need more money.
It's this mentality that is causing Americans to accrue such enormous debt that they can't pay it off before their own death! It's a very sad state of affairs. Budget your money, GO WITHOUT (sacrifice seems to be a foreign concept to some folks), and you can make it.
