A billionaire-owned restaurant charged a "minimum wage" fee. Outrage ensued.

A customer dining at Washington's Oceanaire restaurant noticed an unusual line at the bottom of his receipt: "Due to the rising costs of doing business in this location, including costs associated with higher minimum wage rates, a 3% surcharge has been added to your total bill." He snapped a picture and sent it to local blog Popville, which posted a picture of his receipt. The outraged comments started rolling in.
"Just raise prices if you need to, don't try to slip this in under the radar and then pretty much blame [it] on employees who need to make a living!" wrote one commenter.
