This image is old but I can't believe people really just don't see this as an issue. No country, no person should have to work multiple jobs to earn a livable income. I get that it's been with way a long time in the U.S. and everyone is stubborn and afraid of change and are convinced that the communists are trying to take over like this is the cold war or something, but I really don't believe we should work people into physical exhaustion just to scrape by. The fact is, it's greed. The people higher in these business's food chain want more money. How do we maximize that? Low wages and high costs. If wages were proportional to cost of living then $7.50 an hour would seem like a joke. To other countries, the U.S. is a joke. I'm not lieing, I'm not here to shove propaganda down peoples throats. But seriously, just because weve been doing it for the last 90 years doesn't mean we need to continue to treat people like medieval serfs.
