I think some people would be surprised how many business owners actually make less than minimum wage themselves or put on a façade of success why also relying on the food bank. Sure, big corporations like McDonalds, Wal-Mart, Starbucks, 7-11, etc... can pay it and fill in the gaps I guess. When small businesses close, they are types that tend to swallow up the market.

I guess it's just quite possible that we live in a post-small business world. It certainly looks like it has been heading that way for a long time anyway, so maybe it's just time to give in to it and let small businesses go the way of the dodo. It just rubs me the wrong way when people seem to assume that doubling wage cost for businesses is no big deal as if business owners are sleeping in piles of money.
