[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]Not everyone is meant to earn a livable wage.[/b] That doesn’t mean they can’t earn a livable wage. Many of these workers are part time by choice and it’s a supplement to other income.[/quote] Are you for real? You don't think working 40 hours / week should be enough to afford basics of life? [/quote] Min fast food wage in CA is now 40,000 a year. So a couple with two kids is going to earn 80,000 a year. The issue is they aren’t going to qualify for many state funded programs. Free health insurance in CA through medi-cal the cut off for a family of 4 is $43000. No more food stamps, free child care either. A lot of fast food workers are going to be ok n for a big surprise when they get cut off from many of these programs. [/quote]
