Quote from futurecurrents:
There's difference between your cited example and that of the young mother who made a mistake and making her kids pay for it. I agree that in your example there of course needs to be accountability.
And this is about the minimum wage and people who are doing the right thing and working full time but are still in poverty.
The minimum wage should be raised.
So you agree on consequences in one example, but not in the other. So who gets to determine what consequences should be suffered and which ones should be eased?
You?
Please describe what criteria should be used to bailout (which is effectively what we're talking about) someone who made a mistake.
