As the owner: seems to me I ought to be the one determining the value of any job I need done.

If I value poorly, then I'll have no employees (or, what I have will be for shit).

If I over-value, then my business suffers by way of my misuse of cash.

If I'm wise, then I pay what my lil economy can bear.

If I'm unwise then -- one way or another -- I go out of business.

Not seein' the need for mandated wages.

Leads to a return to feudalism. And that's OK. Feudalism lead to the French Revolution.
