Riiiiight… asking for people to stand on their own with marketable skills is apparently a huge ask these days from some. Just come out and say you are lazy and want hand-outs.
People who work minimum wage jobs are lazy now? You’re the type of person who demands to speak to the manager when your burger takes longer than 30 seconds to arrive at the drive-through window, aren’t you?
Correct, they make around $1 above minimum—~$8.45 on average—which is around $2 above poverty wage…
Even $15/h isn’t enough to survive in a non-rotting apartment, unless you walk to work, don’t eat any healthy nutritious foods, and give up on any and all hobbies/interests.
yes, in the future, everyone will be a software developer, and no one will stock shelves, deliver mail, or any of those “no-Skill” jobs that seem to need doing lest our economy collapse
Good thing we’ll get God-Emperor Trump in there and take care of all those “lazy moochers.” You left out “welfare queens,” by the way.
I can’t even imagine the “some people don’t deserve to be paid enough to survive” mindset.

Good jump in logic there! Your future is bright indeed!1!!
Ah, so now I’m a no-skill worker who doesn’t deserve to get paid enough to survive.
Fascinating.
People who work in fast food do not make minimum wage

$15/hr is $30k/year, and an enormous amount of people live on that. Median income in my state is 31k/year.
Not everywhere is LA.

I am entirely pro-handout, and I’m not lazy at all. I’m not even a socialist lol
Giving poor people money, straight up, is the second best thing we could do to grow our economy, in general.
