>What it does is shift business models that depend on slave labor for their margins. It forces innovation and automation Which is a euphemism for saying "they will lay people off and leave them unemployed." There will be some innovation and automation. More likely outsourcing, and the benefits of whatever innovation there is won't go to the unemployed workers. >I don't understand why the government subsidizes margins made on the backs of labor by supplementing their wages with welfare payments. They aren't. The employers are paying their employees the market worth of their labor. The government is providing assistance to those whose market worth isn't that much.
