That, like all conservative bumper-sticker witticisms, is a part without a whole.

No poor person ever gave them a butterfly either.

Companies don't hire out of some sense of noblesse oblige. Companies hire when there is DEMAND, i.e. poor people spending excess income not tied up in bills and cost of living expenses.
