Around here, it's also those who need jobs to support their families who can't afford to take time out of life to improve their lot in life. Get over the fantasy world you live in and take a walk in the real world for once, with your eyes open.
If you are the sole support of a family and all you can make is minimum wage, you had no business having kids and that makes that person stupid. Where in the constitution does it say I have to supplement a person's income because they are too stupid to take care of themselves?

I went to McDonalds just a few days ago. There were a few older women who are married and supplementing their income and a couple retired men supplementing thier income. A few were high school or college kids working part time. The only full-time employee was the supervisor and I know he doesn't make minimum wage. Maybe your propaganda is not working. Maybe you need to find a new talking point.
