Pretty fucked up if you think about it. In order to circumvent minimum wage laws, they reclassified their employees as tipped employees, thus exempting them from having to pay state minimum wage. These types of practices are common in third world countries. It would seem the US has dropped from a developed nation to a developing one. This is also further proof that a minimum wage doesn’t work. The free market should decide the fair market value of a laborer.
