Quote: oh man this is rich.

 

You've got to be the biggest proponent of government interference I've met yet, it's almost scary if it wasn't funny. You want to give legislative authority to dictate wages and you think that's going to help create work for the poor?

 

You say the poor don't notice the increase in taxes as they earn more, that's baloney when they get their checks they notice it. 

 

When the choice for business is "spend that money on wages and building up your business" or "pay 35% of your corporate income in taxes and we'll pay the money out to those people you could have hired in social welfare" then suddenly hiring more people sounds pretty good to business.

 

The problem is the current political spectrum refuses to create that incentive to hire.
