If a market exists for low-paid work, then we should think about how we can make this type of work more attractive by providing government assistance. of course, the wage-earner must be able to live off of his wages. we will not allow poverty wages or dumping wages. but the wage earner can receive a combined wage that includes both his actual wages and a government subsidy.
Thinking Government Wages
Regarding the economy & taxation: america's most successful achievers do pay a higher share of the total tax burden. the top one percent income earners paid 18 percent of the total tax burden in 1981, and paid 25 percent in 1991. the bottom 50 percent of income earners paid only 8 percent of the total tax burden, and paid only 5 percent in 1991. history shows that tax cuts have always resulted in improved economic growth producing more tax revenue in the treasury.

We stand for a living wage. wages are subnormal if they fail to provide a living for those who devote their time and energy to industrial occupations. the monetary equivalent of a living wage varies according to local conditions, but must include enough to secure the elements of a normal standard of living-a standard high enough to make morality possible, to provide for education and recreation, to care for immature members of the family, to maintain the family during periods of sickness, and to permit of reasonable saving for old age.
Immature Age Normal
[martin luther king, jr.] would want us to celebrate him, his birth, and his legacy by acting upon his agenda, by realizing the dream, by making the minimum wage a living wage, by having not just family and medical leave, but paid sick leave for our workers, [and] by having quality, affordable child care so that our families, the power of women can be unleashed in our economy and in our society.
