[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't think people should be trying to support a family or even themselves on one minimum wage job. [/quote] Of course not. The reality is that millions of people are in precisely that situation.[/quote] OK so why are we upping the wage to pay for bad mistakes? I would think a lower wage would spur people on to better jobs. [/quote] I would think there would be unicorns and rainbows for all, but that is not the truth of the matter. They aren't staying in burger jobs because they're lazy. They're staying there because: 1. There are no better jobs in their area. 2. They aren't qualified for better jobs, and they have no money for school or retraining.[/quote]
