[QUOTE="wkmac, post: 1042126, member: 2189"] If you are paying your employees $15 per hour, their net purchasing power is around $7 per hour and depending on locale, could be less. In real dollars they are making $7 an hour thanks to rent seeking mostly disguised as taxation. Cut your own gross income in half and that's the real net of your actual purchasing power. That was the point and that's not speculation either. If it was speculation then why do we have so-called "Tax Freedom day" in June, 6 months into the year and from that point forward the money you earn is now yours. What happened to conservatives who understood this stuff? No wonder you guys are buying into the false choices given you by the 2 party state! I noticed you never answered RoadRunner's excellent question about getting gov't subsidy. That's OK, truth is we're all subsidized at some level. Even UPS enjoys it and so does Fred S and his crew.
