People don't need incentives to work. The needs of their family is plenty of an incentive. They need fair paying jobs.

In the early 1900's the workers had to fight the plutocrats like hell to establish unions to get fair pay and safe working conditions. Business wanted to pay slave wages, put workers in unsafe working conditions and workers were treated like dogs.

Unions changed that. Then in the 80's Reagan, on orders from the plutocrats, started busting unions and here we are back to business taking advantage of workers.

And guys like you are helping them.

Business would like the workers to work for nothing. Go back to slavery and you can have full employment.

Help them by letting the markets create jobs for them.

Immorality is keeping them in poverty their whole lives by keeping them on government programs.

Safety nets are ok. But shouldn't take away incentive. Or become the incentive.
