There are many examples of employers (corporations) that are subsidized.
Record profits, declining real wages over the last ten years for average employees, and massive increase in pay for management over the last 30 years suggest that employers aren't being obligated to pay too much for labor. Do you have any data that suggests that labor is costing too much as a result of government programs that pay people not to work?
The distribution of resources (wealth) is grossly unfair and anyone working ought to make a living wage. It is immoral to do otherwise.
- yummyfajitas 13y agoI don't dispute that many corporations receive subsidies. I dispute that government benefits given to low skill workers are a subsidy given to their employer. Do you have any data that suggests that labor is costing too much as a result of government programs that pay people not to work? I cited one bit of data that showed exactly this in the post you just responded to.
