Reb, to be fair, many of them simply have the misfortune of working at Burger King.

Fast food workers either live in shelters, on the streets, or in public projects. I once ready a study that concluded that in order to afford apartments, a fast food worker would have to share an apartment with 16 other fast food workers. This post was edited on 8/15 at 7:56 pm

Workers at burger king cannot afford apartments, even if 5 of them live together.

Let me guess. You think minimum wage should be $20

"Why, the homeless live on the streets by choice. If they REALLY wanted a home, they could have their friends buy a trailer for them in LP"

Elect him. Hell may as well make minimum wage $30 an hour because nothing bad will come of it. Not like companies will fire people to cut their losses, send more jobs overseas, or jack up the prices since people have more money. No way any of that could possibly happen if you raise minimum wage a significant amount.

Didn't you read his first post in this thread? Firing people should be illegal.

Yes I did.

That guy who sits around and doesn't do his job 90% of the time? You shouldn't fire him because he isn't getting paid enough to care anyway.

Even if the guy is joking, there are actually people who think like this and it's infuriating. It's like they have no concept of how the real world works.

Don't take what you have for granted, it can be gone before you even know it.. some of those homeless people can't work to make a living or keep up with bills and the cost of living.. everything you have is a blessing, some are just not as blessed or fortunate as others.


Real truth. Well said.

Is this thread legit? I'm confused is this an actual question.

But I guarantee homeless people aren't homeless by choice. If they could have a roof over their head I guarantee they would

You are a stupid democrat and if you feel so sorry for all of these non taxpayers then you should give up your house and move under a bridge with them
