I’m so sick of this “the minimum wage should be able to support a family of 4” crap. the min wage should be for kids in high school. if you have a family of 4 and are still earning minimum wage, just maybe it’s possible that it’s not the employers fault. God, this country has turned upside down in the last 20 years. what the hell ?

Regardless of who is responsible, the obvious fact is that current jobs won’t support a decent living standard. People can dispute it from a hundred different points of view, but the simple fact is that having a family or buying a modest home is simply not in the cards for the average 25 year-old for the foreseeable future.
