If it's not enough, then why are people working the jobs? Because they are caught between a rock and a hard place. The Republicans tell people that they can't be on welfare unless they get a job. Then when they get a job they no longer qualify for welfare. But if the job is minimum wage then they can't afford to live. So they quit the job so they can qualify for welfare again, at which point they then have to start looking for another minimum wage job. People work these jobs but no one STAYS at these jobs its a constantly transitory kind of work, the employers know it and like it that way, thats why they pay so little.
