        Good. I'm glad to pay more if the minimum wage is increased and it helps the working poor.

        All workers are entitled to a fair pay, not this rubbish tuppence. Seems America can't afford refugees if a small payrise is a problem.

        Nobody is 'entitled' to any wage. One earns based on the value added by one's labor. Increase one's value, increases one's pay

        Same thing when the left demands higher corporate taxes. Who pays? The customers do.

        @FoxNews @CNN @latimes @nytimes Minimum wage is always, minimum. Raise it all you want, makes no difference, cost/price rises too.

        "rather than raising menu prices", like that wouldn't mean diners foot the bill?

        Owners haven't invested life savings so patrons can enjoy outings at their expense. Servers deserve decent living too. Tough business.

        And when people can't afford those restaurants anymore those workers will be on government subsidies.

        Do Americans really believe that a person can support a family on $8ph? If you paid someone that in my country, you would go to jail.

        complaining about this is insane when tipped staff get paid such low hourly wages that the restaurant barely accounts for their income
