Non Tipped Minimum Wage 03 15 2021

 I believe that non-tipped minimum wage for a waiter or waitress should be the same as minimum wage for everyone else.  Minimum Wage means Minimum Wage!  Only a Republican could contort the meaning of that.

And the waiter or waitress should get the tips.  Not some scheme where the business owner gets them.

The young waitress working her way through higher education asks for more money and what does (Mario?) the owner tell her?  "Oh if you want more money I have a place where you can dance."

Yeah, I really don't like them!  I really don't!

What is the tip?  It is you paying that person to serve you food!  So that you don't have to sit home and serve yourself.

You know what else?  Anybody who has to serve drunks ought to get more money for doing so?  No. scratch that.  Minimum wage is minimum wage.  If I were to say it should be greater for that then a Contorted Republican would view it as meaning it could be less than the minimum wage, as they already did.  Decoupled it.

Don't want the person who is smiling to get the money?  Means that you don't like people.  If you don't like people get the f out of the restaurant business.

Do you know what happens?  The restaurant owner gets fatter than the house and couldn't be a waiter if he wanted to.

 

****'

And if they had to pay general minimum wage could they stay in business?  Who knows.  Why should I care?  To me it is like, if you want to be a business owner you have to be fair.  The employee does the bull work of the operation to enrich one person?  I just don't believe in that scheme or idolatry.  Employment should reflect a Commonwealth and Democratic principles.

The bright young person shouldn't be held back in life because of failed opportunities or what amounts to rotten working conditions or working for rotten people.  I don't believe you should have to work for rotten people and enrich their rotten families!

What does the business owner ask himself?  "Who can I get to do my work for me?"  While you are scratching your head compare and contrast that to a plantation owner.

And who is at the top?  Networked people of the lowest character imaginable!  Stealing the ideas and dreams from the future of humanity and America.

There I said it.  Another self condemning diatribe.  Whooo who!
