Well, the abortion stuff touches upon a thing that i am uncomfortable with with your stance.

As with most of my views it considers the concerns from both sides of the issue, tries to integrate the legitimate ones (according to me) and find a solution that address all the legitimate concerns from both sides. I feel my solution successfully does this, so naturally, it pisses off everyone on both sides of the aisle.

After all, the more unemployed people there are, the bigger the pressure to take unfair jobs.

No you have it backwards. The more unemployed people there are, the less you have to pay a person and still be fair. Afterall if the population is largely unhiarable due to no one bothering to get marketable skills, then that means most people’s labour has very little value and therefore it is fair to pay them a less-than-living wage.

It is the governments responsibility to ensure the proper welfare programs are in place to support the unmarketable laborers, particularly if they bother to issue a minimum wage that is responsible for so many unskilled laborers to be unhirable. And also the governments responsibility to offer the right frameworks to ensure people have the oppertunity to gains kills and rise above the line of marketability.

It is not a companies responsibility to pay anyone a penny more than their natural market value.

You are free of this suspicion, only your stance of “if someone takes a job, then the offer was ok” is posing the problem i am talking about.

It was perfectly ok… but there are many possible places to fix the problem, not the least of which could be that the person accepting the job refused to make the right decisions (took a bad offer, he could have maybe gotten a better one if he shopped around). So yes it is always fair but only so far as that it is fair to the choices both parties made, if people had acted more skillfully then there may have been a better outcome
