minimum wage is no more price setting than when a corporation decides what price to release a new product at. The marketplace will decide where the price goes from the initial offering. Same with minimum wage... if the worker is productive he'll get a raise or quit, if not he gets fired.
No more Mr. Bad guy

True.
In Australia, my lawn guy drives a Range Rover.
I'm relaxed about it.
You obviously don't own your own business.
i will pay my employee what we agree to in a work contract. we are two individual soveriegns, we will work out our own contracts.
The government has no authority to tell me what i can and can't pay someone. It's my property, my money, my business. If I don't manage it well. If I buy cheap labor, and I provide piss poor service. I will fail.
If I compete for the best employees, if I pay a competitive rate, if i provide a good service, i will survive as a business.
That is free markets. All you need is healthy competition.

Stop being so insular.
With your attitude, you will never run a business for more than 6 months.
[QUOTE=Ozwest;1634872]been running one for years.. and will be running it for the rest of my life.
my employees are well paid. but that is because I make sure we all get well paid. not because the government has control over my property.
stop sucking on the government's dick. its not needed to run your business.

My longest term employee worked for me for 14 years, the median time for the rest of my staff was about 8 years.
This is how you run a business.
You control how long your employees work for you?
My employees stay as long as its beneficial for both of us. When it is not, they no longer work for me.
Some people, i hire by the job. they have done jobs with me for years, but may go a whole year without working a job with me.
Resource management can be taken care of in laissez faire.
More than one way to skin a pig.

Of course, it may be important to note, the 90% of the people I hire are skilled labor. I treat them as equal sovereigns in my ventures and this in return benefits me.
Unskilled labor is less likely to end up at the same job opportunities.

Bulent Unel
Louisiana State University, Baton Rouge
May 2008
Abstract:
In this paper, using a production framework in which skilled and unskilled labor are imperfect substitutes, I analyze the time paths of the efficiencies of skilled and unskilled labor and their implications for economic growth and wage inequality in the US between 1950 and 2005. There are two main findings. First, I find that skilled labor efficiency has grown more slowly since the mid 1970s. Second and more interestingly, I find that beginning in the early 1970s, there has been a considerable decline in the absolute level of the efficiency of unskilled labor, implying that the decline has played a significant role in the overall productivity slowdown and the substantial widening in the U.S. wage structure.
Keywords: Growth accounting, skilled (unskilled) labor efficiency, skill-biased technical change, skill premium

It was always a treat.
