I define parasite as someone who thinks another person owes them something.
Congrats- you think the whole human race are Parasites.
Do you customers owe you money? Do your employees owe you a day's work? Human society is based on us owing each other things.
You didn't think this out, did you?
Why wouldn't they vote for someone that would force taxpayers like me to support them. They haven't done shit to support themselves. Why would anyone expect them to start now.
Actually, as I keep pointing out to you, many of them have jobs, just jobs where a rich person is ripping them off for the fruits of their labors. Many more would happily take jobs if they were available.
I also guess that you are probably against food stamps, but all for middle class entitlements like Social Security, Unemployment benefits and Medicare.
Why would I make the Waltons pay someone a higher wage than their skills are worth? If the people who get paid an equivalent wage to their skill level actually did something to better their skills, it wouldn't be an issue. You blame Walmart for paying someone with $7.25/hour skills $7.25/hour. You should be blaming the one with the low skills. Why should any business pay an employee more than the skills are worth even if the pay isn't enough? Your problem is you blame the wrong people. If you owned a business, would you pay an employee that had low level skills twice what those skills warranted? If you say yes, you're a liar, retarded and someone that would never own a business, or some combination.
I would pay an employee a fair wage so he was happy with what he did and would do a good job for me. Frankly, I've worked in places where the managers thought like you did. Keeping and retaining good people was next to impossible for the 'low skill" jobs, and it probably cost us more money in turnover costs than anything else.
The problem is that the same folks who think that the people doing the work are only worth $7.25 - even though they are the face of your company and the people the customer sees - are the same ones who pay executives eight figures when the company is losing money.
Again- why you need strong unions and strong labor laws- to protect these people from themselves.
