"And the owners of small businesses? Well, a lot of them are my heroes. Putting their entire wealth on the line on shaky prospects. Often earning less than their employees, when times are lean. I hesitate to think what raising the minimum wage substantially, and the resulting higher salary demands by people all up the pay scale, would mean to those people who are trying to make ends meet in the current business climate where increased insurance costs alone... Well, dont' get me started on that."

Thank you for that Dinah. My hubby is one of those "put it all on the line and make 1/3 of what he made before" start his own business types. We sunk what was, to us, a scarey amount into it and took a huge hit in monthly income.

It's working out ok, but we're not making it hand over fist either - and he still hasn't given himself a raise.
