I have seen a number of people who have long term low wage jobs. That is all they can do. They are not intelligent enough, or mentally healthy enough, or drug clean enough to advance. There is no shame at being a broompusher. That may be all that the broompusher can manage. To expect to earn a wage as a broompusher is unrealistic. It would take at least 2 broompushing wages to support any sort of household.

The minimum wage was never meant to support a family.

Nor is this minimum wage increase designed to support a family, except those in the Unions who will live off the dues collected.

Unfortunately, the problem isn’t that A is A, but that people who refuse to acknowledge that fact and have government guns to help them fake reality.

yup and if the fast food places keep on cheaping their food even more, nobody’s going to earn a living there b/c nobody will want to eat flavored cardboard and acrylic fries.

i’have given up on fast food pretty’much. you get what you pay for. i want real food. these no-skilled, high school floaters can go and bitch about nobody wanting to hire them.
