Dipy, the minimum wage thing is a farce. In our company we have nearly 100 employees and none making minimum wage. Even the Burger King or McDonalds kids are making around 7.00 per hour.

Why not raise the mininum wage to even $20.00....AND eliminate welfare, except for VERY SPECIAL EXCEPTIONS! And BTW....how do you define "fat cat"...Who in the world do you think creates new jobs...? Yu do know, don't you,that the top 5% of taxpayers in this country pay OVER 28% of ALL the taxes taken in....and that the bottom 50% of the taxpayers pay less than 4%....(Look at the IRS figures, and/or the WSJ for varification) KLP

If they don't like it they can move to Mexico or Canada. Then they'll find out how good they have it here.knc
