Lots of breast beating and blame being laid, without any solutions being made (or even proposed)...typical GFY thread. :1orglaugh Part 2: :stoned ADG |

That sort of ended that, thanks very instructive. |
Minimum wage when I grew up was for kids making money after school. I worked at several minimum wage jobs before going into the Navy.
If they were to raise the wages to $10, then everyone else would want to wages raised to make up for the rising cost of living due to companies having to raise prices, then the people wanting minimum wages raised this time would want them raised again. The left is so concerned about this it makes me sick since back in 2007, median household income was $55,438. That's declined to $51,404 in February 2013 |

Those jobs are for 14-17 year old while in School. When I had a Min wage job to provide for my family, I got TWO of those Jobs. I also donated Plasma for food money for my family. Only time I have ever been on Public assistance was when I had Back surgery and could not provide for my family. I did earn those benefits from working two jobs my entire life after the Military... Many of the people on Benefits are Lifers and even Families are now handing down this mind set. My son had 2 friends over and were talking. One guy said he got a female pregnant. the other guy said you better go get on Welfare. He didn't tell him to go get a JOB.... |
ALSO, these fast food places DO give raises. Well where I live they do. So, if you suck so bad to not get a raise, get another JOB.
Not enough Hours? Get a second Job or a third. With this cold, many places are hurting for WORKERS, because they don't want to come in. Big Company UPS can't keep enough people. Well they do only start at $8.50 to do Physical Labor. So on and so on.. |

I know several that have got welfare in the form of Food Stamps for the 15 years I have known them. She gets $500+ a month for her and 3 children. So, while they do not allow her to get the $250 a month in Cash she use to get, they bumped her food stamps. No matter what you say Food stamps is welfare. The $500 a month now is lower, it use to be around $700. This is just the tip of the iceberg, she knows how to work the system. I do not agree with it at all, but like the tax break people, it is there, so use it... |

" it cost tax payers 650 million in welfare and public housing assistance" No matter how "LITTLE" it is, it is not fair to the hard working people. Give me an extra $1,000+ a month, as a bonus for doing nothing... |
