WHAT!?!?!?

1.  person A DOES NOT take a lower paying job so that other people 
    can work there too.  He takes the lower paying job because he
    can't get a higher paying one (usually)......geez
2.  companies dont try to go out and hire as many people as possible
    they hire as many people as they a) need  and b) can afford  
    unless they NEED persons C,D, and E tey wont hire them...etc


In the system as it stands, the person who contributes least gets
more of the benefits of our government

the gov shurely isn't run like a business...
