But how does someone working for minimum wage buy insurance? Dear God is this country so damn miserable that they will not look after their own people. I have had the misfortune to meet come chaep bastards in my time, but this. . . .
We taxpayers are required to subsidize employers too cheap to pay livable salaries so the workers require food stamps. The same government that tanked the economy gripes and moans about paying unemployment. So what are these people to do, just starve quietly and die? I really hope the housing market climbs as I will sell out and move to a civilized country.
