    All labor deserves a living wage.

    It doesn’t fucking matter how difficult or complex a job is. If your business wants people’s time - you had better fucking pay them enough to be there next month. Otherwise, you don’t get to be a business.

    All labor that delivers value in excess of the wage deserves a living wage.

      If you’re employing someone and losing money, that’s your stupid problem.

      If you’re employing someone - they deserve a living wage. Or fuck off.

        Correct, which is why the business left over don’t pay a living wage, otherwise it’s not economically viable and they disappear. Would you rather someone be unemployed (and receive no wage) vs a crummy job at which they can work towards getting higher pay?

          Fuck off and take your false dilemma with you.

          We cannot tolerate any job, however shite, paying less than a living wage. There’s no shortage of money. There’s no shortage of work to be done. “Businesses left over” are making record profits, right now. You can figure this out.
