In Reply to: I was part of an amusing exchange this morning posted by Curious on January 3, 2013 at 16:50:41:
Your friend seems to have stated 3 things:
-his employees get low pay
-if he raises their pay, his products will become unwanted in the competitive marketplace
-he believes taxes should go up to reduce government deficit spending
This all makes sense.
Your stated reply, that "I am not interested in subsidizing his employees low wages through higher taxes" does not seem to relate to the 3 points he made or even to make much sense. It is no wonder that he looked at you as though you had 3 heads. He was probably quite confused.
