Date | 00:37:00, March 28, 2006 CET | From | Neo-Libertarian Party of Sekowo | To | Debating the Minimum Wage |
Message | If the government holds the people's hand, they'll never learn any responsibility. If a wage is too low, no one applies for a job, and the problem fixes itself. There's no need to force anyone into any kind of standard. The government should only take care of what it needs to. |
