Pat Buchanan: Offset minimum wage increase with small business tax cuts

Q: There's a bill on Capitol Hill right now to raise the minimum wage a buck an hour over a two year period. Is "Blue Collar" Pat going to support a raise in the minimum wage?
A: "Blue Collar" Pat would take a look at it, if in return you would cut taxes on all small business in America. Take the taxes away so that the government doesn't benefit from it, and I'll go along with it.
