for profit prisons can make the lazy into slaves at a net profit to the taxpayer. minimum wage slavery has no cage, they should stop complaining for a living wage or they will get neither.
My STATE has a mandated minimum wage with a COLA adjustment, and a good number of States also do so even if the Feds didn't do it the States would have. Of course they can do that. But ,well, the States didn't complain about it so what is the issue with them accepting the Federal minimum wage. But I have an idea when a disabled baby is born make it legal to leave it in the public domain to die since they like I is clearly a burden to our families and society so it would be better to kill us over society taking care of us because no one would hire us or we couldn't earn enough for our medical bills and our other expenses and if we get too disabled labor send us to Nazi-like death centers to be put down.
Rather than die in what you consider to be an American "Nazi-like death center", I suggest that you migrate away from the dreadful United States that you obviously believe is 'targeting' you. We Conservatives are used to comments like yours, designed to make us feel ashamed and guilty because not everyone is 'suffering' as you on the Left always seem to do. Because the whining and wailing has been so strident during the last ten years, we on the Right have become rather inured to it -- and that makes us appear to be 'heartless'. Been there, heard that.... I won't ramble on for nine or ten paragraphs now. I'll simply say that it is an unalterable axiom of human interaction since the dawn of civilization -- YOU GET WHAT YOU EARN IN A FREE-MARKET ECONOMY. It may be a dollar an hour, it may be a million dollars an hour. That is entirely up to YOU. What are you worth? What can you do? What do you know? THOSE are the important criteria to consider as you make your own way in life. You on the Left expect to be able have your economic existence supplemented by the government with 'subsidies' (another word for 'welfare'), or, to simply be given everything you need to exist in life, simply because you think you are 'entitled' to be given it, for some reason.... If you aspire to live in a Socialist state where the government is run by central banks and their stooges in a "1984-esque" scenario, then I suggest you investigate your prospects in a place where this is practiced. Venezuela is one example of such a place, but it not working very well right now. North Korea comes immediately and intuitively to mind as a much more efficiently-run, professionally-managed country you might be interested in.... .So, the "fired" one draws welfare! Brilliant!
