My logic is that welfare is independent/separate of minimum wage. I see now that I am seen splitting a hair to some on this, but it is a significant concept to me. That is, whether the low wage worker is getting welfare, living with mom and dad, or has a trust fund, lives like a student.... There are all sorts of scenarios --separate from welfare-- where people are fine making less than minimum wage. ...Like say, the official Sun Tropics bikini-lotion-application-specialist-boy.
