I understand that you view business that way but do you have any evidence whatsoever that your view is true?Most businesses that typically employ a lot of unskilled labor are cheap "$#@!s" who absent employment law and minimum wages would treat workers today the same way as they were treated in centuries gone by.
Oh, wait, you would have presented evidence.

Here's what minimum wage actually does. McDonald's cut it's staff to three people instead of the five it used to have at a small store.
