If they can't make a living on what they are earning, that should be incentive for them to educate themselves and forge their own path in life rather than having the government take money from other people to fund their livelihood. America is the land of opportunity. Maybe they should use it. It's there for everyone. That's what I did. I was a high scool drop out maing $1 an hour in 1965 and now I am comfortable. The government didn't set my wage. I taught myself how to get a better life by educating myself and working hard.
