<p>[QUOTE=&quot;lucyray, post: 1056861, member: 24565&quot;]This is spoken like someone with his ears/eyes closed.&nbsp; Married to a business owner (until my husband died 6 years ago), (4 businesses actually)(successfull)(over 50 employees, and in business for many years) and personally working in that business myself for 24 years, I can say that FOR US in our business, we NEVER offered a job to an employee at a rate that was calculated to cover our portion of the medicare and social security tax.&nbsp; YOU might do that, but then that might make you one of the &#039;rich&#039; people being talked about here.&nbsp;&nbsp; Those taxes are a cost of doing business these days, and if you have an employee that the going rate is $15.00 for and you offer him $13.85 (to use your example), then shame on you.&nbsp; As an employer, you are already the one making profit; why would you offer an employee any less than they (their job) are worth?&nbsp; Don&#039;t answer that, because it really doesn&#039;t matter.&nbsp; There are some who could see that as greed.&nbsp; </p><p>AND that is why I say not all rich people are the same.&nbsp; </p><p>Aaaaargh![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
