(501 posts)Americas first minimum-wage law, passed by Congress in 1938, allowed states to set a lower wage for tipped workers, but it wasnt until the 60s that labor advocates persuaded Congress to adopt a federal tipped minimum wage that increased in tandem with the regular minimum wage. In 1996, former Godfathers Pizza CEO Herman Cain, who was then head of the National Restaurant Association, helped convince a Republican-led Congress to decouple the two wages. The tipped minimum has been stuck at $2.13 ever since.

(2,895 posts)I never even wished for him to die. Even though the policies and values he advocated were mean, selfish, hurtful, and short-sighted. He denied reality and science. In the end, reality bit him in the ass and he wanted science to save him from it.

He killed himself - not a tear here

(54,094 posts)He built a successful restaurant chain from the ground up. Unfortunately he succumbed to another disease long ago: millionaire-itis. This is the sudden rightward turn in ideology that afflicts many self made business builders. They confuse success in the business world with competence in managing public policy. Looking out for number one requires a kind of myopia, an exacting focus on belief in one's own flawless judgment. It's an admirable skill, but it doesn't translate well into navigating the dangers of a killer environment where you have to put your trust in scientists, who are by profession naysayers.
The same hubris that let Herman Cain build an empire led him to ignore the dangers of a virus that did not respect his unique personal drive. It's a harsh lesson. I hope more people learn it from his mistakes instead of their own.

(19,569 posts)This is the obvious outcome of attempting to politicizing a health crisis.
Viruses don't care about your political affiliation. They just want to replicate.
