I saw in the paper today that Pizza Hut fired 1,000 of their drivers, because the cost of the minimum wage was unsustainable for them without shedding some of their work force. I wonder how the 1,000 terminated employees feel now about the minimum wage?

Good one. You've just presented the eternal US donor's/bosses-class's argument for ever more undocumented workers to shore up the vast cheap service sector economy.

Reminds me of a quote made by the late Lee Iaccoca. When Chrysler was on the verge of going out of business in the early 80's, one of the things management was demanding was a cut in hourly pay. Iaccoca famously stated that he had lots of jobs at a certain cut wage rate, but no jobs at the existing wage rate.
