I agree we should push back about the wage this like the OP is, but the point about them being bad at business may not be the right way to go about it, simply because it's not exactly true. The reality is it's absurdly hard to make any small business that isn't a restaurant or gas station work these days simply because of the absurd globalization methods of the past 40 years since Reagan and Carter started it all. It's because of the very very broken economy where nearly all the wealth is tied up with a few rich asswhipes while the rest of the country tries to compete with gigantic multinationals and unsurprisingly fails.
