Now that I have an IV and I am duct taped into my chair ..............
Paying a minimum wage because the law dictates that it is the minimum you are required to pay, you end up with masses demanding a wage increase.
Paying a living wage and you end up with masses who have no need for welfare. And while some may squander their wages, working more and living frugally for a duration would allow those persons to catch up and become less likely to repeat the same behavior because they learned a valuable lesson in the process.
If you walk ten steps to the left or right of your bloated self importance, you might understand the concept of reaping what you sow.
Now, why is it necessary to pay workers the bare minimum?
the most likely answer is A) you are determined to make more than the bare minimum B) you are an asshole C) you and other assholes like you lack any foresight as to how this will yield economic consequences in the long run, to which you will grumble about in Internets Forums -and- D) all of the above.
