So do all the countries with single-payer 
No, it isn’t. There are a whole bunch of reasons low-skill jobs are disappearing and a portion of the middle class with it.
Name another economic model that has produced a middle class and that has allowed an individual to start with nothing and become wealthy? I’ll not hold my breath since I enjoy living.
Are small businesses the same thing as multi-national corporations? Do they follow the same practices?
Why are you still stupid?
People trying to justify destroying the lives of others to make more money.
You must be so proud of yourself.
In Soviet Russia, Small Business own YOU
While I disagree with you that people are trying to justify destroying the lives of others to make more money, it appears to me your alternative is that Government ought to be the only entity capable of destroying lives - but in your scenario there is no wealth creation nor improvement of living standards. Just soul destroying poverty and bread lines…To which I say:
A truly retarded post from a very small person.
But it is you who wants the “free market” to run wild. Maybe then we can bring back slavery and child labor.

There is no such thing as the free market".
And those in positions of power do not want competition. Especially big corporations. And this s why they bribe politicians. The corruption starts with them.
No they do not. Why would a corporation pay the wages of Americans when they could pay far less overseas? It nets those who have more than enough more. Because it is never enough. Make sure the majority of the wealth goes to those who need it the least.
This is being recognized by more and more of the population. Hence the popularity of Sanders/Corbyn.
bwahahahahahahahahaha
Not as much as in the U.S.
Cheaper labor? So those at the top can make even more money while simultaneously destroying the lives of thousands of Americans. Wow, what a great system. When word to the population gets second hand Co-Ops will become more and more popular fundamentally changing the economy where everyone benefits, not just those at the top.
Slavery is an issue of human rights.
Child labour is illegal due to children not having the mental capacity to consent under the law. Just like you. Probably why you’re unemployed.
P.S I worked at a child labour factory when I was a child. If I didn’t have that job, my family wouldn’t have had basic utilities for months. Do you know where I would have had to bathe? Using a communal tap on a sidewalk where people drew water to wash clothes.
Is this really what you want?
Why are you now using me for your agenda?
Jesus, zep, you are even lower of a scum than I thought you were.
Bro, we agree!
EDIT: Of course, if Americans wanted to pay for those wages then jobs would stay here. It’s Americans as a whole that don’t want those jobs here.
If Corporation E(vil) could produce widgets for $1.00 each when built in the USA, and produce them for $1.00 each when built in China…producing widgets in China would net less profit due to shipping costs.
If Corporation E(vil) could produce widgets for $2.00 each when built in the USA, and produce them for $1.00 each in China…widgets would still be produced in the USA if consumers were willing to spend $1.00 more/widget for “Made in the USA.”
Regulations.
What about if your parents were paid a living wage?
Totally blind, you are.
Do you back this practice?
This answers nothing.
Your post is uninformed and juvenile.
I love it. @Zeppelin795 has solved the problems of hunger and poverty in the world: just pay people a living wage. What, exactly, is a living wage?
An irony bomb with a blast radius greater than fat man and little boy.
Just trying to adopt your style, Cochise
Clearly it’s the wage one needs to be paid to maintain a reasonable standard of living, duh
uhuh…
That’s one potential reason.
You’ve never actually been inside a business as an employee have you?
It’s certainly better than the imaginary systems you can’t name that doesn’t perform better.
Co-ops are older than this country… Iirc, Franklin operated one.
You know not what you’re talking about.
Wrong. Contract law.
Oh there was a minimum wage. It just couldn’t keep up with the cost of living.
Over 50% employed under the government.
Welfare? State couldn’t afford it. Not enough evil corporations there at the time.
Regardless, my parents would never accept a handout because they have principles.
You have none.
I love this non-sense.
Just trying to get ahead of the circular reasoning that Zep will inevitably provide
