Conservative Christians love money more than they love Christ and their neighbors.

No business owner is gonna hire anyone unless there’s enough demand for their product or service to necessitate adding people to meet that demand.

Luke 3 commands us to “be content with your wages.” However, so many Christians are shallow and uninformed socialists, they think they are doing God’s will when they try to use government to carry out the agenda of socialists and communists.

“No, Christ would not seek to force a business owner to pay more especially to employees who usually only do what is required of them to get by.”

Extremely broad generalization. I was not aware that Christ had such a clear-cut political platform.

When two people make an agreement, they are expected to keep the agreement. In the parable the owner did not treat anyone unfairly. He paid the going wage and kept his word. He was not “unscrupulous” but kept his agreement. It seems former independent, hardworking Americans have become flaming socialists who have made government their god.

Like most people you confuse what government should do with what Christians should do.

The parable teaches the right of a businessman to contract with workers and all should keep their agreement but the reason for the parable is to teach that Christ will reward us as He chooses whenever we trust Christ and begin to serve Him.
