Sure they are, in an indirect way. This doesn't mean that I want to eliminate food aid and medical care for poorer folks, but it does mean that Wal*Mart doesn't have to pay these folks enough to live on. Perhaps if we can raise the federal minimum wage, we'll be able to cut back some of these programs and get the companies benefiting from these employees' work to compensate them fairly for it. |

What's your theory on why those employees are not being compensated fairly for their labor? What is preventing them from taking other higher paying jobs that better reward their talents? If their labor is being significantly undervalued, it implies they should be able to seek better employment.
What is fair compensation for those jobs? What decides that? Who decides that?
