Second of all, like I said before, you should do what is the best for everyone instead of expectin g people to work their buts of and letting them suffer. Not having proper laws and regulations for problems where other first-world countries (Canada, Australia, Japan and practically all of Europe) do have can be a source of solving most the US' problems. Gun control, Immigration Laws, minimun wage, etc. The countries that do best on the Prosperity Index (even though the US is pretty high up I must admit) are the countries that tax the living shit out of their citizens to make sure a lot of things are available for everyone. And while the US is indeed bigger, a lot of money is being spent in places where it should instead be spent on its citizens. And to get back to your question in the second paragraph you wrote, let me just pull an example for the Bible. I'll let Jesus argue this one for me: https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Luke+15%3A11-32

I don't mean to put you down, but no, my arguments are NOT fallacies. An argument is never a fallacy if you can back it up with evidence. The Great Gatsby Curve is a generalisation of how society works, and this is what goverments use to make decisions. You can't just look at individual cases and argue what's the best for society, because you have to pick the decision that is the best for EVERYONE. Actually, your arguements come closer to fallacies because you have shown me zero evidence to back anything up and use ''emotional judgement'' instead of rational thinking. This is called an anecdotal fallacy or ''misleading vividness''.

I can tell you as a fact that people will in fact work harder if they earn minimum wage, because there is more money to make. The bigger the reward; the harder people work. Where I live, it's been like that for years. Letting rich people pay more taxes and trying to lower the income gap is a step to a better and improved United States. It has been proven by studies that it works like this, and it will have an effect on other things as well. Because of not having enough money to pay the bills, people often turn to crime. But if they could earn enough in the first place, why would they? I'm not just making this up, there have been studies around for years to prove my point.

Of course I'm downvoted when people disagree with my opinion, but I'm a little hurt funsubbers don't respect my opinion TT-TT
Here is an article about illegal immigrants working in agriculture: http://www.voanews.com/content/us-farmers-depend-on-illegal-immigrants-100541644/162082.html
That's what they often come to the United States to work, not to leech. When they're illegal, they don't recieve any benefits anyway. The problem with this phenomenon is that it's not properly regulated. If laws were to be made and they would recieve minimun wage, people born in the US would apply too. If there are no illegal jobs in the US, the appeal will go away and they will stop comming. Some people see this as a very black and white situation, but the truth is that there just needs to be more laws & regulation.

I don't know, I'm not from the United States, but in my experience immigrants usually do the work we don't want to do, with a lower salary and worse treatment at that.
In my country the working immigrants are mostly Polish, and are abused by farmers with horrible hours and little pay. They usually don't speak the language either, so they cannot protest. The thing that needs to be fixed, is that they will recieve minimun wage, so that the farmers don't profit from the fact that they're forgein. From that perspective, the farmer might as well hire a person native to the country. In general, the closer the salaries are, the happier people tend to be. I think the US would greatly profit if the gap between poor and rich is reduced.

By the way there is no other Assasin wearing white pants, so it has to be Edward.

Ezio wears red patterns on the left side of his shoulder in both AC2 and AC Brotherhood. In AC revelations he wears a grey garment. Both Connor and Edward wear blue instead of the traditional red. The man in this picture is clearly wearing blue. Connor's garment is a bit more elaborate than Edwards', and if you look up a costume you can definitly see the resemblance: http://fancy.com/things/439105404497039387/assassin's-creed-4-black-flag-edward-jacket-edward-hoodie-edward-kenway-cosplay-costume-make-up-costume-halloween-costume

Straight from wikipedia:
''Görtemaker notes that Braun and Hitler enjoyed a normal sex life. Braun's friends and relatives described Eva giggling over a 1938 photograph of Neville Chamberlain sitting on a sofa in Hitler's Munich flat with the remark: "If only he knew what goings-on that sofa has seen."''
Just sayin, if a man is good to a woman, that don't mean he is a good man.
