Rossi does not want to lower the minimum wage, but wait, wait, wait just for a few kids. Just for the first six months while we train them to fill a popcorn box or shine flashlight. How many trainies would make six months? Five and a half and you’re out of here.

What greater service can a government do for small business than to give their customers more spendable income. Min. wagers don’t save; they spend it all on movies and clothes and food and etc.

Times has zero integerty to say Rossi just sort of wants to lower the min. wage. The man has no understanding of economics or anything but influence peddling.
