$7.25 an hour is not a living wage (Well Duh?!!)

The first McDonalds had Carhops... those were typically teens were they not???

I didn't see that when I was looking up the history. They started as a restaurant, then went to what they called "Speedy Service System" but it didn't mention carhops.

Think a no skills employee can make 360 burgers an hour? Because this MACHINE can.

God I love the future.

Yes, it is not linked to inflation per se but is decided by the Low Pay Commission.

The Low Pay Commission? Sounds like a leftover of the former Soviet Union.

Gotta love them Government "deciders" and arbiters of what is fair eh?

 

[canceled.2021.1]

can't we just make it $40/hour and call it a day?

According to the liberals raising minimum wage has ZERO negative impact, so just raise it to $40/hour

If $15/hour is good then $40/hour is better. Why do liberals want to keep people down?

Now you will hear crickets; I have yet to see a coherent response from brain dead liberals about raising it to $20 or $40 an hour based on their loony arguments that raising it doesn't have a negative economic impact.

Hey, how did that Fast Food strike work out yesterday. I heard the the unions paid for protesters to show up, and only $10.00 an hour.

Delusional...

 

[SmarterthanYou]

When I was a kid, fast-food jobs were viewed as jobs for teenagers or beginners’ jobs. It is a testament to just how bad the economy under Obama is that these are now considered not only career moves, but worth fighting, dying and being fired for. My how things have changed.

this was inevitable considering the laziness of the last two generations. why should they try to succeed when liberals are working hard to support their mediocrity?

Minimum wage was never meant to be a "living wage". The minimum wage is an "entry level wage" set by laws for the unskilled labor market. A living wage is an income meant to afford basic life needs adequately- PS this would not include cell phones, cars, TV's etc.
