I would just like to know where in the hell someone is going to live on $15.00 an hour in NY or SF? Do they have 15 people to an apartment? Oh wait, no, the regulations most likely state that you can only have 2 per bedroom.

Fast food jobs are entry level jobs. This is why it's great for a teen still at home or sharing a place with other people. It's not meant for $15 and hour. A parent, or even two parents, working at McDonalds at $15 an hour in NY cannot possibly raise a family or even rent a room!

Rooms here in the bay area start at $800 per month. You can't pay rent, own a car, pay insurance, buy gas, clothes, food, and still pay $800 per month on a $15/hour salary in this area. Soon they'll figure this out and demand themselves more raises and out of a job.
