For a lot of people, job choice consists of chosing between McDonalds and
Burger King. It's easy to say that they should "get an education and better
themselves" and many do, but others do not have the chance. It's also
undeniably true that many people simnply don't have the smarts or the
ambition to do so, but that's no reason why they should be sentenced to
living in poverty their whole lives. Anyone who is willing to work and play
by the rules should be able to make a decent life for themselves and their
family. A country that can afford to pay executives tens of millions a year
can surely afford a little more at the other end of the scale.
