   Never said that.  I said it's a lot for a totally unskilled job.

   The idea that wages for unskilled jobs should be high because of what   
   someone else earns is absurd.  Wages should based on worth of abilities,   
   not on needs.  I don't want Marxism, but seems you do.

   WTF are you on with your stereotyping BS?  I tip rather high.  Usually   
   25-30% for excellent service, nothing for extremely lousy service.   
      
   Lets say we do things your way.  Raise the minimum wage for unskilled   
   entry level jobs to $30/hr.  Would that make you happy?  What do you   
   think the end result of doing so would be?  Would such peoples standard   
   of living and buying power go up?  Hardly.  You just don't get it!
