Ok so that unskilled worker works his or her ass off to get promoted to shift manager and STILL makes under $10 per hour. A manager is not a unskilled job.

Define "livable" wage, please.
If they had an "unlivable" wage, would they be dead? Would they be homeless? Cause it seems like this has been going on for some time now and they're all still alive and doing just fine.
The cost of food and shelter is independent from what McDonalds pay their workers. Feel free to blame the Government for their involvement in monetary policy that's led to a higher cost of living. $7.25/hour would be more "livable" (whatever that means) if everything wasn't so expensive.
And maybe they should work their ass off trying to find a better job. It takes a special kind of stupid to suggest the sole act of "working your ass off" (how hard can you work at taking orders and flipping burgers?) should equate to an increase in wage.
