"Inclusion?"


"How many are the people who earnestly call for modern society to encourage greater 'inclusion,' yet who also support minimum-wage legislation? I suspect that the number of such people is large.
    "These people obviously miss what should be, but apparently isn’t, obvious – namely, by criminalising the ability of low-skilled workers to compete for employment by offering to work at wages below the legislated minimum, minimum-wage legislation is the opposite of 'inclusive.' Such legislation excludes from the above-ground job market workers with the lowest skills."
