For food service industry and retail, I'm for the minimum wage being increased to at least $12. Not for manufacturing. Software and robotics are going to revolutionize manufacturing in the next 10 years. In the meantime, we have to compete with overseas manufacturing.

Mark Cuban

We don`t have a manufacturing base. We don`t have a middle-class jobs growing at all. All we have is a few rich people and a service industry to service them.

This is the hardest thing to articulate: I think that there is a legitimate space for sexual commerce. And like every other industry, particularly the service industry, the workers are getting the short end of the stick. Are there some industries that just shouldn't exist? Yes. But I don't think the sex industry is one of them. As it currently operates it's not damaging, necessarily, but it might itself be damaged. It's busted.

Melissa Gira Grant

A refund for defective software might be nice, except it would bankrupt the entire software industry in the first year.
