The try was just fine, thanks.

Are there conclusions right or wrong, shitbag?  Can you 
refute them?  No - you can't.

This is a favorite tactic of leftist whiners like you. 
 You like to imagine that if you can find some link to 
Big Business, a set of conclusions is ipso facto 
invalidated.  Got news for you, crybaby punk:  you're 
wrong.  See if you can find some study that shows a 
different demographic makeup of minimum wage earners. 
This should be good for a laugh.
