they could just stop paying people not to work and remove the numerous disincentives for companies to hire workers and repeal minimum wage laws. The market creates jobs all by itself, the only reason there is so much unemployment is because of regulation and taxes.

This plan makes unemployment benefits no longer create a superunitary marginal tax rate (see http://mises.org/daily/3822 (http://mises.org/daily/3822)), so it works for exactly the reason why it should.

More socialism for the rich. Why should my tax dollars support some corporate cheapskate that won't pay a living wage? Worse yet, why should the business paying the unemployment insurance premiums for that former employee subsidize his competitor? If the government wants to intervene, why put the burden of the unemployed on taxpayers and domestic businesses instead of the addressing the issues that caused the unemployment and underemployment problems to begin with? Stop producing a stupid and lazy workforce. Stop subsidizing outsourcing and roll back the Reagan Voodoo Economics (http://www.investopedia.com/terms/v/voodooeconomics.asp#axzz1rUm5ECOk).

More people in the workplace doesn't increase efficiency.  This is a very tiny step in the right direction, with lots of bad consequences which will more than make up for any benefits.

I'm in favor of a living wage law, Minimum wage is a form of subjugation.

Also i think we should make it a federal offense for a person or a corporation to outsource an American job overseas, Punishable by up to 10 years in prison.

That's a little extreme. Maybe if we stop paying corporations to outsource jobs overseas that might be enough to stop them from doing it.

I don't, Not only do i think outsourcers should face prison i think it should be deemed an act of treason.

Also i'm sick of hearing about all these corporations making record profits and paying most their staff only around $7 to $8 per hour, The current living wage is at around $12.50 an hour, Anything less than that and you can only live vicariously from paycheck to paycheck.

In some cities $8 per hour wouldent even get you a decent trash can to live in.
