Why you not mad at the private sector for ****ing their disposable commodities?

Because the free market is a better judge of value.. Assigning an arbitrary wage to people negates or ignores the value of their effort and the worth of their contribution. A business has a bottom line. If it pays people more than they are worth it will fail. The state can pay arbitrary wages because if they need more money to cover costs, they just reach into your wallet.

What if the free market system doesn't result in a livable wage?

Then the government simply makes up the difference by creating loads of "safety net" (income redistribution) programs, allows the use of (imported) third world labor and/or mandates that folks be paid based on their needs (household size and household other income) rather than based on their job skills.

That...doesn't make any sense. At best, all you've done is demonstrate that the private sector system for determining wages is actually pretty bad because it requires Federal intervention of some kind.

I haven't denied anything. I asked you what makes you think Trump wants to be vicious. Evidently, you can't come up with anything.

'Cause disgusting and vicious are kind of his two main characteristics. Haven't you read any of his tweets? Didn't you notice he publicly supported the the KKK and Neo Nazis?

Do try to keep up Mycroft.

Please point to something that indicates Trump is being vicious to government employees.
