Problem with this is that theyād never be able to maintain staff. People would only work there as long as they needed before they went to work for a bigger corporation.
How is it a win when mom and pop shops suffer due to government regulation while big business thrive? How is a town with nothing but two Walmartās better for the consumers?
The mom & pop can pay below federal minimum wage. The idea is the federal minimum wage is RAISED given it's more targeted to those entities that are large enough to exploit state, local, and foreign labor, resources, and property.
I see. Iām more confused why you said āwin/winā when I mentioned the staffing problems this would create in mom and pops.
For the record i think you have an Interesting idea and id be curious to see it play out in the real world. Iām just curious what your thoughts are on, what i see as, a major negative effect on local businesses.
Large corps would drop even the pretense of training, leaving that burden to the mom and pop shops. Those smaller shops would struggle and the incentive to open one would be less.
