It's his money, he earned it, why should he give it to slugs who are in the entitlement programs.. He didn't drag people in off the street to work for him, minimum wage or no.

Is he seriously considering the jobs at his stores something that the average person could live on? Let's do the math. He said that he brings in over $6M. He pays 500 employees, rent, food, and equipment costs with that money. When you take out his paltry take home pay of $600,00, you are left with $5.4M. Let's give him the benefit of the doubt and say that his rent, food, and equipment costs are $2M, which is highly unlikely that they are that low. That leaves $3.4M to pay the salaries of 500 employees. The average salary of his employees is $6,800 per year. Are those the kind of jobs this country needs? He is not a job creator. He is a slum creator.

How did his 600,000 drop to 400,000 "after he feeds his family" So it takes him 200k to feed his family? I swear these morons are so out of touch its disgusting.

He lives a life of luxury while the people who work for him make minimum wage and pay more in taxes than he does. Kinda sick.

These rich people make me laugh. To think about how they complain about upping minimum wage and then turn around say 400k isn't enough to feed their family which I'm guessing he's lying about anyways.
