Living Wage is enough to cover keeping a roof over your, head put food on your table and keep your heat and water running.

Morgan Spurlock on of his episodes of 30 days spent one motnh working at 8 bucks an hour in Columbus, OH (one of the cheaper places to live) and ended up in the hole because he couldnt couldnt cover the bills for the one bedroom shithole he was living in there and then got injured on his job without health insurance.

Wal-Mart goes into a lot or smaller communities runs everything else out of town so they are practically the only place to work, pays everyone nothing, gives nothing back to the community leaving a lot of single income homes (including children in the home) with nothing.

I'm sorry but since we're such and advanced society damn straight it should be the government's job to make sure all these medical treatments we have are available to us. These arent perks of living these are necessities.

As for people whining about their birth control prices. There's a lot of people that need it for reasons other than birth control but also there are cases of people that need it to make sure they dont get pregnant because they cant afford to have kids, or they are trying to get to position where they can afford to ahve kids. A lot of them are young people splitting several bilsl amongst themselves and several roomates. They arent exactly out burning through money. FOr such a liberterian counterargument to Wal-Mart's refusal to give people living wages and benefits, I wouldnt expect denying someone the right to choose when they have kids and do with their body as they please to be part of it.
