How do you equate loss of jobs with pulling people up above the poverty line?
You are clearly not familiar with the species known as liberal.
Here is a typical conversation you might have with one of these unintelligent individuals.
Person 1: if we raise wages, that'll put people out of work
Liberal: yes, but the higher wage will push them above the poverty line
Person 1: yes but if you're unemployed, you have no income
Liberal: but they'll be above the poverty line if the wage goes up
Person 1: but that higher wage makes people worse off if they lose their job and never earn that wage
Liberal: but they'll be above the poverty line
Person 1: ugh, ok but what if the people laid off are gay, black, latino or female, and only white males keep their jobs at this higher wage?
Liberal: then their employer is obviously a homophobe, racist sexist and we should raise taxes on the white male
