"On the contrary, my house is much more affordable having been built with laborers who worked for $6 an hour rather than for $75 an hour."

I guess it's okay with you that those $6.00 per hour carpenters have to get their food, housing and medical care at the taxpayer's expense, isn't it? "Privatize the profits...socialize the costs".

Excellent way of putting it.

We will soon have a low-skill labor force that is subsidized by the income taxpayer. So much for wages being part of "supply and demand".

Where will this end?

How do you get that they receive their food, housing and medical care at the taxpayer's expense? The ones I know purchase all that themselves.
