Less then a generation ago, McBurgerbell workers averaged 16 years old…

My view is that if there is to be a minimum wage, it should be a starter wage for teens entering the workforce who live with there parents. A living wage is not now or has ever been a McNugget counter. It takes about 200 hours of vocational school to become certified in wielding, plumbing, auto/auto body- repair, home/industrial electricity ect were you’ll make about $20.oo an hour…
If your all grown up, take up wielding…
The public schools are pulling something in the “everyone must go to college” thing. Not everyone was meant to and more then half drop out…
