> That is _not_ a solution, and this is an incredibly naive and classist take on why people people work in unskilled positions.

Care to elaborate? Many of us held minimum wage positions for some period of time before gathering the skills / tools / time to move on to something better.

> A society absolutely does have a moral obligation to its citizenry, otherwise what is the point of it?

A citizenry has moral obligations to its society. Demanding handouts for minimal contribution does not create a strong society.

> A man must bend his knee to the oligarchs and the state and get crumbs in return? This is what I meant by classist conspiracy theories and capitalist bootlicking. HN needs to wake the fuck up.

I can hurl insults and straw-man opposing views, too. I don't think it benefits anyone, though.
