I'll defend them... They have *every* right to do this and the government should not for a split second get involved in how a small, non-essential, service runs their business.

I can't wait until you're ready to do the same for 75 year old grandma's who's flower business is destroyed by the state gaystapo.

This is so totally wrong in every possible way.

You're okay with a business hanging up a white's only sign?

No, I'm not ok with it. That does not mean I think the government should kick in the doors and drag away the owners. I'll happily picket the place with you Tom, happily.

Yes... And a black owned business that want's to only emply black youth should be able to go that way. If they are non essential and are a small company then it's not really my place to boss them around.

Fun fact... Some businesses are exempt from the FLSA based on their size.

Quote:The FLSA applies only to employers whose annual sales total $500,000 or more or who are engaged in interstate commerce.

The idea of giving some exemptions to small businesses is well established in US law.
