You're pathetic and shameful for not pretending to care about fast food workers and high school teens.
yeezus
It's OVER 5,000!
Yes, because inflation is real. A once livable wage is no long livable.

How do you magically discern what people "deserve"?

It'd probably be a good thing, in a certain sense. It's sad and disgusting that the least nutritious, most unhealthy foodstuffs in this country are the most available, most heavily marketed, and the cheapest — especially considering how much waste is involved in the maelstrom of industrial processes that bring fast-food components from the origination point to one's mouth.

There's a lot of that going around.

Your mindset seems to me to be, largely, the "mindset of this country." And yes: it boggles the mind a bit.

it is crazy that the people here that bitch about welfare the most also look down on WORKERS who aren't getting paid enough to actually live above the poverty line

Aren't the $15/hr min wage advocates doing the same thing?
Why should someone who works as a fast food cashier earn enough to raise a family? Maybe that person should have thought twice before conceiving considering they have a horrible job.

the first sentence of the first comment I saw after the article points out
Paul Ryan makes $87 an hour.
For getting everything wrong!
$87 / per mudder phuggin hour
And the man that works 40 hour weeks picking up his garbage and servng his hamburger makes $7.50 for that same hour. To only be vilified for being poor by the self righteous.

How do you handle the fact that if minimum wage suddenly doubled, lots of goods and services will go up in price to compensate the business owners. All of a sudden, minimum wage workers fall back below the poverty line. Some of you guys act like if labor prices rise, it will come out of the big bad greedy business owners' pocket and not be passed on to their customers.
No, everything will stay the same but the workers salary. Lets forget that fast food restaurants will pass their additional expense to the consumer which will result in less sales which will result in less revenues which will result in reduction of work staff.
