There will always be entry level jobs with entry level pay. And there will always be lazy people who do the bare minimum & their pay will reflect that. But there should be far more upward mobility. And very few obstacles for anyone who is willing to work for better pay to actually achieve it.

Get the govt out of the way so that anyone can start a business without having to buy permission from the political class, & most people might be able to work for themselves in some form or fashion.

The starting salary has to be enough to live comfortably on a 40-hour week. We are back to square one.

Okay, wish that in one hand & shit in another & see which one fills up first.

Are you really incapable of undersranding the things I have said so far?

If I have never had a job & I have no skills, and I certainly couldn't make a comfortable living producing anything on my own. How does it make any sense for me to be able to demand someone else pay me a whole bunch to produce very little?

If all I have is some paperclips & pocket lint, but I really want your nice laptop, can I demand that you trade me your laptop for my paperclips & lint "because everyone deserves a decent way to connect to the internet"...?

Why do you think anyone should be able to force a business owner to trade money & benefits for that person's worthless unskilled labor?

The problem with socialists is that they believe anyone who has more than them should be transformed into some sort of slave to those who have less.
