You make an interesting point
But as a follow up. If your employee doesn't earn enough to support himself, should the taxpayer make up the difference?
Should an employer have the taxpayers support his employees just so that he can profit off of substandard wages?
If he doesn't make enough at one job to pay his bills then he should work 2 jobs or 3 jobs etc.
We have made it easier and easier to suck on the government tit and should address that as well.
I want to know where it is written that one 40 hour a week job is all that one needs to support himself. No one I know that ever accomplished anything only ever worked 40 hours a week.
That assumes that for the tens of millions of working Americans who need some sort of government assistance there are 2 or 3 additional jobs available. In fact, the opposite is true. There are three applicants for every job that is open
If you want to work you can.
Anyone can make some extra money and they don't have to work for someone else to do it.
I'll bet right now that anyone who really wanted to could earn an extra 100 a week mowing lawns, doing heavy yard work cleaning out attics or even cleaning houses.
The question is will they?
