I agree, but none of this is remotely just or fair without a minimum wage that is a living wage. And what that is needs to be reassessed if policies change the cost of living.

If you do anything to a low level of the economy (e.g. fuel or energy prices) to the point where consumption at the upper levels is reduced then you're also screwing the poors hard enough that you are either going to get voted out of office or shot in short order (depending on how your system of government handles power transitions).
