"but not so much that he's willing to pay them a living wage?"
The problem with word choices like that is the implication the human beings working for him are not living, and further, that's OK.
The reality is that "we" are paying the living wage to his employees via higher taxes in very expensive government services so he can pocket more profit than if he responsibly took care of his own employees.
If all the welfare queen small business owners left, tax rates could drop quite a bit. Life would, frankly, improve for everyone except the parasites future hosts in LV and other areas.

Life would, frankly, improve for everyone except the parasites Inflammatory comments like these are anti-intellectual and don't belong here. It's the same thing as referring to people on unemployment as welfare queens.

- chillydawg 10y agoThe "welfare queens" are operating in a competitive business environment where they have to compete to survive. Don't hate the player, hate the game. Obviously, we want to remove as much corporate welfare as possible, to allow the market to operate smoothly while still allowing for subsidies in well thought out places like clean energy or investing in new business sectors.
