And I'm saying this isn't right.
If an employer can find workers to do a job for a minimal salary, and
everything is legal, who's business is it of the government to tell the
company how much to pay someone? What's next, they gonna tell you and I how
much to pay our kids for allowance?

Some poor persons being desperate does not excuse the employer from paying
their employees an ethical wage. Because its the TAXPAYERS who pick up the
slack. Its we who subsidize those people who dont' make enough to manage.

If a company is willing to pay their CEO that much, then someone will take
the job.
If the same company offers 4.95 per hour for shovelling shit, and no one
wants to do it then they have to raise the wage, right? Now if someone
says,
"Hey, I'll shovel that shit for 4.95 an hour" then the market for that job
was correct.
As long as you have humans + society + wealth = corruption. No matter what
government, country or planet they live on.

"As for minimum wage, I think a market economy dicatates a fair wage for a
job done, doesnt it?"
Right... do you know of a single person who can perform 10 million
dollars
worth of work for a company in a year? I don't. But many CEOs get paid
this much. It's all corrupt.

Make welfare available only for the disabled who cant work. Everyone
else
gets a job vacated by the departing illegal immigrants or wherever they
can
find work.
If someone shoots you on the street for your wallet and food, then they
should be punished to the fullest extent of the law (which should be the
death penalty in cases of murder)
As for minimum wage, I think a market economy dicatates a fair wage for
a
job done, doesnt it?
