How is me paying more making less turn into me getting fruits of someone else's labor? How is me asking someone else to do what I have to do "punishing" them? I'm confused on how you think this has merit.

hahahaha. Right. If I agreed to squash the McDonalds employee somehow (tax them higher, take away any health benefits, perhaps take away food stamps because 8 bucks an hour is enough $ to feed their family of 6) - THEN would I be a true conservative? Or do I need to make sure they're Christian bible thumpers and not gay first?
