Why is it the employer's responsibility to provide a living wage?

[Ryantology]

Isn't this another way of saying your too cheap to help your fellow man so you want to mandate that employers pay a wage high enough so you don't have too?

People have moral/social obligations to other people. You want to shift that obligation away from people and onto corporations.

So, it's okay for employers to be too cheap to pay for the labor they get, and they have the right to pass on the moral and social obligations everybody else apparently has.
