probably not a good sign that a guy making twice the federal minimum wage and working 60 hours a week can't support a family of 3 on his own
Well, everything cost wise went up 30-40% in the last few months...
That is a bad sign.

Not salty
I just have compassion for my fellow man
I can't imagine trying to get by on 16/17 per hour. It would be literally impossible where I live

So don't live there if that's all you're able to make. This isn't hard.

The American communist party developed a plan in the 1920's and 30's. anyone can find it. part of their plan developed into the democrats using socialism to buy votes, which they did with LBJ. The grand plan of all fascism is to destroy capitalism and dethrone God. Buying votes through entitlements is not the grand plan. the grand plan is to destroy our capitalist system. And they will eventually do that bc no one is fighting them. They have an army of people fighting with the backing of billionaires (more than just soros) while the rest of us sit on our asses in this war.
This number seems unsustainable.

It's almost like the solution to this problem is stated in your second sentence. Shame on me for taking this long to realize you're just fricking with everyone Posted on 7/23/21 at 3:50 pm to Powerman

Well it doesn't apply to me
But obviously jobs at those wages exist here and are necessary
And the problem with "just move" is there might not be many jobs in low cost of living areas

Do you have compassion for your fellow man who has to work more hours to get by, so a portion of his wages can be given to someone who made poor choices?
I live in the far flung suburbs of Atlanta, plenty of people around here survive on that type of wage. This area is more expensive than many others in the nation but certainly less than most big cities.

You've heard of birthday control, right?

Modern society is much different than how we've lived most of our lives
You can't get a good job just because you're physically strong now
You need real skills

Actually it does. You can make more, so you can live there.

Commute. Get roommates.

See above. NYC is expensive as frick yet somehow all the waiters/servers find a way to live and function there.

Right. And if you proposed offering free birth control people would cry about that too

Wife was the head maternity nurse at Caraway in Birmingham.
Blacks would arrive while the baby was coming out in the backseat of the car. No maternity care or prenatal care.
Blacks know how to work the system.
Worst nightmare she still sees.
Twelve year black mother holding her doll baby. Looking through the glas at her real baby while the cops marched Dad to jail for rape.

Think of it as survival of the fittest but with brains/skills instead of fittest

I'm fairly positive you can already get free birth control, try again.
