Surviving Off of $7.25 An Hour

This is just rent
[media=https://youtu.be/76mYMP1dMDk?feature=shared]

Impossible for a minimum wage worker to pay rent, buy food, and supply transportation, and please don't have children - even at eight or nine dollars an hour. One must work two jobs at least....... Will Vice President Kamala Harris try to change this, she indicates she will

She'd say anything to get elected. ANYTHING.

Kumola knows nothing about economics or finance.
She and fiden have had 4 yrs and only made the economy worse.

@SW-User obviously you know nothing about economics or the national economy

I wouldn’t put my trust in ANY of her words or promises for good.
@SDavis ummm you TOTALLY misunderstand me… cause I do NOT put my trust in ANY man!

But as a Christian, it is a duty to vote the lesser of two evils. Make no mistake, my eyes are wide open! If that woman gets in, you can kiss this country good bye and at the very least, it will be unrecognizable.

I believe GOD and what he says on any matter!

But we have to live in a world that mere humans run. (I’m totally aware that God is in supreme control but when people want evil, he will let them have it!) Jesus said, “Give unto Caesar the things that belong unto him and unto God the things that belong to him…

If the righteous don’t vote, then nothing but evil will rule.

Proverbs 29:2
King James Version
2 When the righteous are in authority, the people rejoice: but when the wicked beareth rule, the people mourn. (OH YES)

PS …if Trump doesn’t care about this country, then dear one, NOBODY does!

@NoGamesTolerated I didn't misunderstand you - you said directly you don't trust Kamala.

Quoting the Bible and living the Bible are two different things. You're quoting scripture _ making it seem that you think Trump is righteous. God said he will send them strong delusions allowing them to believe a lie second Thessalonians 11:12. Oh and I'm not saying Trump is the Antichrist spoken of in Revelation - so please don't tell me that I am.

And you say that woman as you call her is more evil than Trump. Cuz you're right to think so you vote for Trump I mean it's a lot of people who are wearing these Trump dictator t-shirts - and buying the Trump Bible.

goodbye
@SDavis goodbye

And I STILL DON’T trust her!

Ok get mad cause I don’t agree with you! A typical Dem tactic…oh yes!!!!!

I’ll help you out with that no worries.

However I was mostly replying to:

- it's not a matter of trust the Bible says don't put your trust in no man.

And again… I DO NOT put my trust in any man! Read my lips dear one cause you evidently didn’t read my words!

Again… I vote the lesser of two evils…I ne er said Trump was a righteous man. That’s between him and God . You assume wayyyy too much and that doesn’t fly with me!

PS… I don’t care what all those so called others do! I’m not one of them. I think for myself.

AND he’s still the lesser of two evils! I said it now good bye to you! Ta Ta Maybe you just don’t comprehend very well.

[quote] Quoting the Bible and living the Bible are two different things.I really don’t mean to sound mean but … you probably do not e em know the word of God, the Bible to know what really living right means.

@sree251 and what does bully mean what does pulpit mean and who is behind the pulpit if not a bully elsewise the term bully wouldn't be used. Example executive order whether you wanted or not this is what I want this is what I'm going to do bullying.

@carpediem

I said I wasn't going to say anything else to you but know where did I say Trump was a murderer.

And any person with common Sense would know those names is referring to the people that blindly follow them regardless of their antics like Trump supporters do Trump even asking him to be a dictator and wearing dictator t-shirts.

Oh you're referring to me as being sick and lazy - because you lack understanding what you read. Actually it's you.

And what I call Trump he is - he's displayed it - he's lived it - he speaks it -and I'm going to add he's a racist and always has been and when you see him with a Black, Hispanic, Muslim, person that's because he wants their vote. Making fun at people with disabilities ..... Making comments about dating his daughter and have you seen the suggestive pictures ...... So much more this man has done.

But you call me sick no ____ you're the one that's sick - it is you who truly needs help. Your comment suggests you don't believe in God so you don't rely on him.......
Nothing else to say to you

There has never been a time when a minimum wage job paid enough to cover rent, food, transportation and raise children. Not in the US, not anywhere.
Musicman · 61-69, MVIP
@Heartlander Exactly! I have never understood people that never aspire to earn more than minimum wage.
Federal minimum wage in Canada is almost exactly $10 more per hour at $17.30.

@PicturesOfABetterTomorrow

Because your toilet paper money is worthless. Just like that mincing fascist in Ottawa you worship so much
@Thrust And great job being a corporate boot licker making excuses for poverty wages like a 3rd world banana republic.

She is a lier and the truth is not in her. She and Biden have made it harder for the low income workers. Minimum wage jobs are entry level jobs, never were designed to live from or raise a family.
Musicman · 61-69, MVIP
She can't change anything. She could raise minimum wage to $100 an hour, but life will adjust the cost of everything else along with it.
SDavis · 56-60, F
@Musicman maybe in the world you live in minimum wage was designed for teenage kids and people entering the workforce - but in this America minimum wage was designed by the government after the Great depression of the 1930s as a means to help people get back on their feet ** and it was 25 cents per hour and many people were paid less - it wasn't heard of then to just go and file a complaint against a company.

https://www.dol.gov/agencies/whd/minimum-wage/history/chart

What country do you live in - making the statement why don't you move up and the statement people won't work for minimum wage all their lives __ as if they had the money to go to college or a form of community college - and some people with college degrees have to work for the minimum wage may or may not advance live at home with Mama __ you talk as if those on minimum wage would be hired without the credentials called for today. 90% of the people on minimum wage stay on minimum wage. And I said 90% not 100%, some do advance.

Like Trump said the migrants are taking Black jobs and those Black jobs he was referring to are low income, minimum wage jobs.

I guess Trump forgot about the over 600,000 whites that work for the minimum wage

You know exactly what you sound like but there's nothing new
Musicman · 61-69, MVIP
@SDavis I truly feel sorry for you.
SDavis · 56-60, F
@Musicman I don't require your pity - I haven't been blinded _ feel sorry for yourself they just may come when you will .... https://www.bible.com/bible/compare/2TH.2.11-12
