Ted Kennedy-ism and Minimum Wage Bill
Today, Ted Kennedy had this to say about the stalled Minimum Wage Bill:
"Why can't we do just one thing for minimum wage workers, no strings attached, no giveaways for the powerful?"
The bill has stalled because some Senators believe that small businesses, I mean cantina's with 20 employees, should be given a bit of a tax break to offset the minimum wage hike.
The fact that Teddy refers to a small restaurateur as the "powerful" is beyond me. Am I missing something here? Is Mr. Kennedy saying all business owners fall into the category of the "power" class?
Thoughts?
