What if someone else offered him more money based on his education and experience, would you complain? I suggest you look at the problem that way. I am using your word, incentivize. Give him more money and he will accept your offer.

Not at all. I offer a competitive wage and benefit package and can easily fill vacancies of his job description. The fact I offer insurance at all is not typical for this position. If someone offers him more, he is free to go.

You see, liberals believe it is my "duty to society" to pay "above market" wages, in order to attempt to entice the worker to accept "full time" work. While they side with the person who appears to have "no duty to society" to hoist themselves off of the entitlement system and accept full time employment.

Let's have a little experiment. Over the next month, when you go to the store, or movie or wherever you shop. Leave an extra 25 percent over the final bill. Go out to eat? Pay 25 percent over the bill. and then your 30% gratuity. Think of it as your "duty to society" Don't forget taxes either. Send the IRS an extra 20% at the end of the year.

Seems there is always "a higher duty to society" for the "makers" vs. "the takers".

Amazing... not one word of outrage at the entitlement recipient, that I offered a user of the entitlment system full time work with insurance, which was refused by the recipient. Only that it is my fault because I do not offer an " above market" salary in order to prod the worker to accept their "Duty to society" and accept the full time job.

Perhaps we could encourage the person to take the job by reducing their entitlement?

And so it goes,
