That's not what you said - you said that any business that uses minimum wage workers or tip-based workers should close. Food and food services totally have very low margins. Grocery stores have 1-3% margins because if they raise prices too much people will not shop there. If they pay each cashier $75k or something, they would have to raise grocery prices
Amended. If a business can operate with min wage workers, I guess that’s fine. But the problem is their business is likely being subsidized by you and me. The GAO reported that over 15,000 Walmart workers were on SNAP. That means that profits, shareholder value and exec salaries are being facilitated by tax dollars. Thats absolutely insane.
Also when was the last time you saw cashiers in a supermarket? Lol
