I think solution is rather simple - universal health care coverage and minimal wage that lands you above poverty line.

So:

1. Increase minimum wage to 12$/h and index it to food/housing costs in the area (so some places it will be above, some below).
2. Remove any kind of incentives to keep people from working full time - specifically "no benefits" hard cutoff. Every hour working should result in % contribution toward 40/week - 100% coverage.

Basic needs have to be covered.
