Some here have accused me of not caring for the poor because of my opposition to minimum wage legislation, so I decided I'll turn the tables around with a question to those who support minimum wage legislation:
Do you support the government guaranteeing a full-time minimum wage to the unemployed, especially considering that some might be unemployed because of the minimum wage, especially among unskilled workers?
Now to some the following might seem contradictory even though to me the two are simply flip sides of the same coin, and that is that on the one hand I oppose minimum-wage legislation, and on the other I support guaranteeing the full-time established minimum-wage to the unemployed. In other words, if you insist on having a minimum wage, then ensure that those potentially affefcted are fairly compensated.
I'd like to know how many among you who support minimum wage legislation also support holding social security to the same standard as any employer?
