You're basically describing the system as it is intended to work. If a business cannot survive without paying someone minimum wage, we've decided as a society that it is not worthy of existence. On the other end, if the person sucks at the job and is costing the business money, I don't know why there is an expectation the person keeps the job. I certainly don't receive that benefit.

An appeal to the decisions of society? I'm not sure that's the argument you're looking for; American society has decided that it works differently for waitresses.
