Washington's minimum wage proposals or paying undocumented workers
Minimum Wage:
1) Pays a large number of kids over $10/hour for spending money.
2) Prevents small businesses from increasing wages for living wage employees that make above minimum wage
3) Assumes Cheney's standard of living is the same as Redmond's
4) The minimum wage does not reflect the employer mandated portion of state and federal payroll taxes.
Undocumented workers:
My elderly mom recently hired a Guatemalan to provide landscaping services. I asked if she checked whether he was documented or license and bonded. No was the answer.
I have a buddy who owns a landscaping company, documents all his workers, and pays taxes.
Sucker…
