salty-space-god: niggazinmoscow: “Minimum wage is livable if all you do is work and go to sleep” as someone who has worked only $1/hr. more than minimum wage in the US as a Supervisor in retail, I can ASSURE you, I BARELY paid my car and loans. I was incapable of moving out from my parents rent free home, paying any bills, or buying groceries. I paid bank loans, and gas money and that was about it. On $10/hr. full-time in a position in my Bachelor’s Degree field, I barely made enough to afford a shit apartment with 2 roommates, minimum bills, bank loans, plus living expenses, without extravagance like take-out and prescription drugs. I drank $2 cans of Mike’s Hard from the gas station, and that was my luxury fun money. Minimum Wage is NOT liveable, it is NOT even bare-minimum survivable; And, even a pay above it STILL isn’t liveable. Eat. The. Rich. -- source link
