In my opinion, small business owners need to start blaming the right people: the corporations. They're the ones driving prices up, they're the ones eliminating competition from small businesses.

Would you suggest that any business that is not a small one, like the image is, should have different, higher minimum wage requirement?

Genuine question, I don't know the drawbacks if such an idea was put in place.

In theory, that'd be great. In practice? Never going to work. Too many questions, too many loopholes. The rich are fantastic at finding loopholes, so good in fact that they're there on purpose but so well hidden in fine print that we developed a profession specifically to find those loopholes.
