Economic ignorance on display. If you don't like working for minimum wage, go get a job that pays $100,000 a year. But wait.....you have no skills worth that kind of money to anyone. Life's a bitch. And another thing, you decide what's a fair wage for a days work. If you don't think it's fair, go work somewhere else for more money. Damn, we're back to that no marketable skills thing. An Obama voter for sure.

And what is wrong with starting at minimum wage? When Walmart started, the “CHICKEN MEN” had this area in an economic stranglehold which paid starvation agriculture wages well below minimum wage. Walmart gave many the first taste of what a decent pay was.

Like so many now, kids leave high school and think they are management material with no work experience.
