I really have no idea why people are so against others making decent wages for working hard and trying to live the American dream.
If it were up to some on here they would have the market dictate wages and the world market dictates pennies on the dollar while the rich get richer. Makes sense to me.
Keep the fucking poor poor and have the rich pay more and more in taxes to support those people. Instead of allowing them to feel self respect by making enough to live and feed their families on.
As far as what I paid, I paid it because I had a conscience, not because I had to. But had those wages come back to bite my ass I would have dropped to minimum wage and I have no problem having a force dictate how much I as an owner make while making sure my employees make decent livings, it would force me to work that much harder to better my product to increase my profit instead of lowering wages and benefits to the people that make the product that allow me to make my money.
It's easy to not do shit to improve your company and pay your workers less and keep your profit margin the same. It's harder and more work to raise wages, improve product and keep the profit...... God forbid CEO's and upper management actually have to work for their money.

So answer the question. What is a decent wage? What wage would you be happy being dictated to pay? At what level is the wage you are dictate to pay too much? Are you happy to stop at $7 an hour or would you be happy if it were $17 an hour?
