housing:
* sufficient for a single parent
food:
* the federal government has established projected costs of food per person
healthcare:
* I believe that all healthcare should be covered, so that. If not that, then an HSA with enough additional money added to their salary to cover the maximum out-of-pocket expenses
Internet:
* average internet available in the area with a minimum of "sufficient to live-stream video footage from one's house for as many residents as live in that place", so parent and child can both join Zoom meetings for whatever reason.
The tactic you're performing here is called "Sea lioning" and it's a bad-faith tactic; but I'll answer the questions just in case you didn't know what I meant by what I said.
- refurb 3y agohousing: sufficient for a single parent A single parent could share a 1 bedroom apartment with another single parent. That's ok? I believe that all healthcare should be covered No country covers all healthcare. The tactic you're performing here is called "Sea lioning" and it's a bad-faith tactic; but I'll answer the questions just in case you didn't know what I meant by what I said. You didn't answer the questions at all. Saying "it needs to be sufficient" is not an answer. And calling it "sealioning" doesn't change that.
- PlunderBunny 3y agoThe living wage movement has organisations that attempt to define a living wage. See, for example, https://www.livingwage.org.nz/about https://www.livingwage.org.nz/about in my own country. They pressure companies into adopting a living wage, and have been reasonably successful. You seem to be arguing that because things can't be perfect or perfectly defined, that the entire idea is invalid.
- refurb 3y agoYour link provides zero details. And I'm not arguing it's not perfectly defined, but how can you ask for something if you can't describe what it is?
- PlunderBunny 3y agoOn the page I linked to: 'In the same year independent research by the Family Centre Social Policy Research Unit established the first Living Wage rate for New Zealand, $18.40 per hour." That quote contains a link to the Family Centre (https://familycentre.org.nz https://familycentre.org.nz) which - if you look down that page a bit - contains the most recent report that defines what a living wage is, how it is determined, and how and when it is reviewed. It describes very clearly what a living wage is. What is your point exactly?
