You ever work for a small business that takes advantage of you? No paid leave? Not overtime? Unfair pay deductions? Illegally filing employees as subcontracters as a tax dodge? Cut hours after taking time off? Denied time off to deal with a family crisis? Forcing employees to pay for stolen merchandise from customer credit card fraud? I have. These things that Obama is asking for will force crook small business owners to respect their employees and help the little guy not get taken advantage of.

Yup as a matter of fact I have. You know what I did? I left. And in my experience most of those are dead end jobs anyways.

Not all of us can just up leave dipsh!t. I was trapped at HP for 3 years with none of those benefits and due to the fact that I was uneducated I couldnt just leave. I had bills n sh!t, as I do now at another ****ty job. I never got overtime, I had to BATTLE with corp to allow me to leave when my grandmother hit the hospital due to a stroke. My pay never increased, it only decreased. Live on ur own first before u say stupid crap like that. Thats HIGHLY disrespectful.

So no, matter a fact u havent. Live on ur own and pay all of ur own bills and keep ur on life afloat. THEN u can speak on this subject.

Wouldn't that also depend on how motivated the employer was NOT to take advantage of you?
