until recently, i owned a small business in baltimore. i employed a lot of unskilled labor. there was a program to keep people off of welfare. part of their salary was made up with reverse tax money. worked well. they cancelled the program, and the employees went onto full time welfare. these people were not worth $10 an hr, and i could not afford to pay them $10 an hour. ************************************************************************* ** List info, subscription management, list rules, archives, privacy ** ** policy, calmness, a member map, and more at http://www.cguys.org/ ** *************************************************************************
