My young children make twice what you make for half the hours in part time jobs while going to school. Maybe you need to look for a different job.
That's always the answer you assholes have for workers who are being exploited. "Maybe you need to look for a different job." Somebody has to do these low skill jobs, many of which involve long hours and a lot of hard work. Why shouldn't they be paid a decent wage for doing them? Why should all of the profit these companies are making go to the CEO's and the shareholders.
Wages are at an all-time low, profits are at an all-time high. You seem to think those two statements aren't connected.
And for the record A$$hat, I haven't worked a minimum wage job since I was 18.
