People fail to understand the concept of minimum wage. You cannot live off of minimum wage; It is not meant to support someone. It's meant to say "you are at the very bottom and you need to do better". When I got out of the Marines I worked four jobs to make ends meet, and I live in a two bedroom apartment with my girlfriend and her friend.

when I worked fast food jobs as a teen in the 80's our min wage paid for a lot more than it does today. Should MCD workers get $15 per hour? hell no but they should have had the same inflation raises over the last few decades and that would be like $12 per hour today.
