Anything he can do that generates at least $30/hr, so I can afford the building, equipment, software, supplies, utilities, pension, taxes, and insurance needed to employ the position.

As a minimum wage though you basically destroy any job that doesn't generate such a high level of profit.

Whatever he's qualified for.

That's an admirable statement, but let me play the devil's advocate. What if all he's qualified for is pushing a broom or bussing tables?

So he doesn't deserve to afford a minimal existence without walfare?

First question: Does he? Second question: Why is it someone else's responsibility to provide him with that? Third question: How long would $15 an hour be enough for a minimal existence as prices rise because of increased labor costs?

Run on a treadmill. I don't think I'd have to pay him for very long.
