Anyone complaining about this is a selfish bastard. "You mean I have to pay a little more just so your employees are treated with respect? Outrageous! -- nm - Guigue Jun 29, 06:52 3

solution: support your local mom & pop restaurants which would have less than 50 employees and thus not fall under the requirements of the new law -- nm - znufrii Jun 29, 06:36 2

  - I'm just saying the market will adapt. -- nm - znufrii Jun 29, 06:41
