Supermac’s owner Pat McDonagh is a multi-millionaire. His staff are on minimum wage. But he’s not greedy, oh no; it’s his low-paid workers, living the high life on €1400 a month, who are greedy. We need to cut welfare payments so millionaires can buy another house, or something.
Entrepreneurs/ rentiers aren't wealth-creators without workers and if they're really responsible for all the wealth how come they aren't able to generate any at the moment?
Rentiers benefit from the State: transport infrastructure, education, health, policing etc
If your employees are better off on welfare than working for you, a millionaire, then you're simply greedy. Why on Earth should they work for less so you get more? Standing up for 8 hours a day serving customers is bloody hard work and it deserves at least a living wage
If your first instinct is to defend millionaires paying poverty wages instead of standing up for working and poor people, you're either a bootlicker or hopeful that you too can one day be rich and exploitative (you won't be though, so enjoy that tasty shoe leather)
