How does the fact that a worker needs to feed and house his/her children equal a requirement upon his/her employer to supply the funds to do those things?

That's it. The attitude is that the owners should starve while the employees live in luxury.

The Democratic Socialists of America (DSA) offers a more diplomatic answer:
Our goal as socialists is to abolish private ownership of the means of production. Our immediate task is to limit the capitalist class’s prerogatives in the workplace...
We can accomplish this by promoting full employment policies, passing local living wage laws, but most of all by increasing the union movement’s power... (emphasis added)

Think we are being played?

What I’m hearing is that liberals like the idea of subsidizing a high minimum wage so it “won’t hurt the businessman”.
