I paid my way through my first year of college on $1 an hour at McDonald’s. Worked full time the entire time I went to college and neve took on a penny of student loans.
I went to buy a few things at the corner store yesterday and was shocked how certain items rose in price so drastically since new minimum wages increased I guess as of Jan. 1. The checker told me everything has gone up to help pay for the new minimum wage for workers.
Here comes inflation.
The economy is already on life support, this won’t bode well for the average citizen living from paycheck to paycheck.
I’m no longer going to give tips to waiters, ect. They can take it out of the increased charges.
We have come full circle back to “Tipping is un-American”
That was before the candy store opened to giverment backed student loans. Just like medicine, the illusion of free drives up prices and gives money to special groups.
