----------------------------------------------------------------

This mod used to fix the issue of "pops in unincorporated states receiving welfare payments", Paradox has since moved away from this design decision. So the current form of the mod, updated for 1.5.8, merely makes it so poor laws pays out half the amount of welfare when compared to proper social securty laws. The immediate impact this will make is that the finances of two big countries (Britain, and France) that starts on poor laws will be improved, but conversely their poorer pops will be slightly more prone to radicalism.

A second type wage inflation that happens if you have no hire-able pops left.

This post is more detailed, however most of it become outdated, as game got updated, some of them got fixed. Minimum wage laws part is current and does explain a different explanation to my games. However, conclusion is same as mine. Wages go up. Minimum Wage is bugged.

Unfortunately, I believe issue is not moddable. How building_minimum_wage_mult works is unmodifiable.
