lol it's one of the few issues "progressives" get right.Like I said, it does a real disservice(along with being just wrong and contradicting their ideology for liberty) to the conservative movement to oppose things like a reasonable living wage and choice(take out the religious whackos and real conservatives are for choice, individual liberties and all) , I get hammered from fellow conservatives about this often but the love for business is rooted deep in conservative thinking, which is okay to a point.Really, it is the only way to truly shrink the welfare state and make environment optimal for economic liberty, along with other things such as repealing the 16th amendment etc. A combination of getting the government off backs and out of the pockets of the average person, making sure the private sector provides within reason is the solution. Really, conservatives would be almost unstoppable if, as a movement, we embraced these things that well within out principles.
