This could just go in circles. What benefit does a job that doesn't provide enough of a wage to survive actually provide to the employee, except a way to waste their time while they accrue debt and wait for an emergency expenditure to bankrupt them?

If only there were less regulations, allowing the creation of more businesses which would compete for this man's labor, increasing the wages as a result.
