Minimum wage has been set at $5.15 an hour since when? 1991? It's about time for them to increase it. Many people out there do not have college education or trade skills so higher paying jobs are not in their reach. And speaking from the perspective of a person that has been desperate for a job, minimum wage has to be an option for adults. I worked three years getting paid minimum wage or not much more ($7.29) for 40 hours a week and it DID pay my bills. So it's possible to survive, just not live comfortably.

i see your point and understand it raini_daze November 10 2006, 20:24:29 UTC
fast food will hire people at more then $7 an hour...i dont know your particular situation but i've known far too many people desperate to pay their bills but unwilling to do what it takes-if its working fast food, cleaning up shit, picking thru garbage, or even being a freaking dishwasher-i know for a fact restaurants pay well over $7 for dishwashers because they cant ever keep them-it should be you gotta do what you gotta do but most people thats only if its what they want to do-nothing less

besides i was simply venting
