Re: Theory on 'Official Poverty' Relating to Racism
and again you'd have to get it passed. which it wouldn't.
of course first you have to get your state legislature to undo and redo the law. which isn't going to happen either. Ps: not doggin you about the weed. i used to smoke and if it were made legal today i'd be the first one standing in line at the store. |

Re: Theory on 'Official Poverty' Relating to Racism
I am not sure it wouldn't pass with a better informed electorate. In any event it can also be adjudicated under common law in favor of the labor code and at-will employment doctrine as recognized by any State.
It conforms to our Ninth Amendment and the ideals of individual liberty and equal protection of the law. |

Re: Theory on 'Official Poverty' Relating to Racism
I think we could reduce costs, and let the several states eliminate poverty through the mechanism of unemployment compensation at-will. Most states recognize at-will employment doctrine and have state at-will employment laws.
It should be considered a state's right to have the general government of the Union, pay the Debts of those states that provide for their general welfare. With the issue of official poverty solved, hypothetically; would we still need the expense of affirmative action programs? How much less racism would there be in a political economy where economic discrimination is both legal and socially acceptable? It could reduce forms of perceived racism that are due to inherent forms of Capitalism in money based markets. Solving for official poverty could also "improve the standard of living" of at-will employment doctrine and state at-will employment laws by ensuring that a simple lack of employment will not result in official poverty due to the lack of income associated with non-employment. In other words, our Ninth Amendment would have greater ethical and moral standing in regard to at-will employment concerning real persons. Artificial persons can afford corporate welfare. Black listing could be decriminalized since it would not result in official poverty for any individual and could conform better to our First Amendment. Would we need the tax burden of socialized medicine if no market participant is in official poverty? A simple, tax preferred health care capital accumulation account could be a basic minimum standard. Anyone one on a hypothetical, at-will unemployment compensation wage could volunteer to be called first for civic obligations to reduce that cost to the private sector. Unemployment compensation at-will could act as a form of consistent economic stimulus that can generate tax revenue for local governments on that same consistent basis. By simulating full employment of resources in the market for labor, the private sector would seek cost efficiencies through gains in productivity and could result in new and improved "cotton gins" as a form of improving our standard of living and general welfare through market friendly means. |
