Quote:I believe so, just more evidence the market not regulation sets labor floors.

How is that evidence of anything?

 

More than likely it's all the bad pub about them being some of the richest people in the world with the fattest profit margins yet they pay next to nothing. Or just getting ahead of a potential increase in wages to effect an earning line in a more positive manner.

 

If the only way a business owner can make a profit is by paying next to nothing wages than you should not be in business or are in the wrong business. If you can afford to pay decent wages and chose not to, to make even more profits than you are a scumbag terrible human being. If you support that behavior than you need to take a look inside at what your values really are.
