Why we need a mandatory living wage:

[Dystopia]

Maybe instead of trying to plunder money from the rich we should all focus on being happy and learning to live with less. Eventually everyone will have to anyway.

This is also the sort of attitude that plutocrats love to instill in people: the idea that by insisting that we get paid a living wage for the work we do is 'plundering' from the rich. We should just sit down, shut up, and and let the rich get richer off the sweat of the workingman's brow.

Being paid a decent salary should be the norm - Taking money from the rich and making the rich poorer won't solve society's problems, but few people actually defend that - No one really wants to take everything away from the rich Robin Hood style, they'd still have lots of wealth
