I am entierly serious, and not stirring a pot.

If you think taking away what little money someone makes because it "isnt enough" is somehow solving a problem then I hate to tell you but it sounds like your the one who isnt serious here.

You dont solve the problem of people making a less than living wage by taking away what money they make. That should be obvious.

There is a group of people who don't get enough money to live.

You get a group of them enough to live. That solves part of the problem.

Now discuss how to get the other people enough to live. Basic income? Instead of tossing out minimum wage think about how to help the other live.

Here's some data...

The 10 states with the highest minimum wage are:

Washington

California

Oregon

Connecticut

Massachusetts

New York

New Jersey

Arizona

Maine

Colorado

Compare this list to the states that have not raised the minimum wage beyond the Federal level:

Alabama

Georgia

Idaho

Indiana

Iowa

Kansas

Kentucky

Louisiana

Mississippi

New Hampshire

North Carolina

North Dakota

Oklahoma

Pennsylvania

South Carolina

Tennessee

Texas

Utah

Wisconsin

Wyoming

Which set of states is economically stronger would you say? In which set of states would you rather be a poor person?
