around where you are at. While there may be alot of big businesses in certain areas, the majority of businesses are small businesses.

That means there are costs that have to be met in order to maintain the company and still make a profit; updating/maintaining machinery and paying workers being some of them. If you overburden a company with exorbitant costs (like minimum wage and mandatory health insurance) they are going to do 1 of 3 things: 1) Try to maintain the current feasibility of the company without changing a thing, resulting in the company going under, 2) they will charge more for their products, or 3) they are going to cut costs by cutting work time or firing/laying off workers. Out of all of those choices, #3 is more than likely going to happen which screws the people that it is supposedly trying to help and also eliminates competition which means less work in general.
If you are so against businesses, there is something called "boycotting" and "voting with your checkbook".
Oh yeah Jen, read Article 1, Sections 7,8 and 9 of the US Constitution for what the role and powers of the Government should be.

So you think the average worker should get paid even less so the bussiness can make more profit in other words the rich get richer and the worker get the shaft, I hear the post office is runing in to debit so are you going to take a pay cut? Would you work for min or under? And give up you health ins? Some how i don't think you would
