That's why you don't create more poor people by paying then to continually reproduce like rabbits.
You're creating more poor people by doing that.

You're severely overstating this problem.

I would go a step further and say that if you are on welfare, then you are on BC, Men and women. Come get your shot and here is your check.
Also make welfare a max of a year or two.

Government has to have some functions for society, that would be a good one. Now we can cut out a bunch of other bullshite to scale down the size of the fed

I would welcome this. The service is so bad at them that we expect when we order at FF restaurants. The people that work in them are fricking retarded and can't follow simple orders.

Let's make one thing clear. NOBODY in this threads wants people to be poor, period. We simply believe that minimum wage increases do more harm than good and are extremely ineffective at solving poverty.
There are NUMEROUS public policies out there that would raise the income of minimum wage workers without threatening their employment prospects. Govt transfers, subsidies, etc.
If society thinks a mcdonalds worker should have some minimum standard of living below which he should not be allowed to fall under, then society should fund it, not an innocent business owner who may not be able to afford higher wage costs.
You are doing 2 things in this thread.
1) You are refusing to argue in good faith. Your premise is that we are evil and you are righteous.
2) You are judging policies by their intentions, not their results.

I don't think $15 federally mandated minimum wage is the answer.
I also know that none of these posters know economic theory from their arse and are spewing a bunch of bullshite they have no idea about.

It's not forcing them, it's in consideration for receiving welfare, sport.

It's definitely not true
Plenty of people want others to be poor. Or at least poorer than them so they have someone to look down upon
