Unskilled workers should also be paid a liveable wage
They work for these huge corporations for example restaurants or major retail chains. These companies can afford it. Nobody should have to be broke and struggling to make ends meet. One job should be enough. And for Christs sake servers should make a proper wage instead of having to rely on tips to survive. Some parts of US culture are really screwed up. Paying someone inadequately for work is literal wage slavery and should be illegal. The federal minimum wage if I am not mistaken is about $7.25 tell me who can live on that? It’s pocket change. And no one should have to work 50-60 hours per week or more just to survive. And for Christs sake proper meal breaks are important too. I feel the US as a whole is more live to work instead of work to live. For an industrialized and highly developed country we sure lag on workers rights. And yes I am aware there are other countries with workaholic tendencies and we shouldn’t emulate them.
