I am not sure why some people have so much concern whether the local Starbucks is going to survive and make a profit and such little concern about the workers who serve them their already overpriced coffee.

Facts are that the more the workers make the more taxes they will pay. Workers who earn more money will qualify for less benefits that the governments will have to pay out to people earning less than the poverty level.

I for one would rather have corporations who make big profits and often pay no taxes pay their employees a decent wage. This will keep my taxes lower because less people will qualify for handouts from the government.
