Husband and I were talking and suggested that the ones unhappy with minimum wage at a food place need to get a skill so that the person would actually earn more. Fast Food worker should not be seen as a career.
Stumbled upon this article and it is well said.

good article , thanks L.L. !! They may not realize that they make 15 and hour and the burger goes up to 10 apiece . Whopper bigshot , think it was Burger Kings says that 15 an hour means goodbye to the dollar menu . Probably automated pay systems , maybe robot cookers . Burger franchise owners are going to get annoyed so will look to save every penny meaning less jobs .

Another view on it is that some people will never be qualified to be worth 15 bucks an hour, and they are shit out of a job.

There will always be poor people. You can't legislate poverty away.

Yeah, you are right about that.

I frequently hear ads addressed to people who have poor credit that something to the effect of "get that car loan you deserve." Uh, if your credit is lousy you DESERVE to not be approved for a loan at all. I'm sick and tired of the inappropriate use of that word.
