Im all for it, Even tho I work from home. I was just talking about how a job making 8$ an hr 40 hrs a week wouldnt pay my home owners taxes let alone any of my other bills, and leave enough money to live. Its really hard to live off 1000 - 1100 a month (minimum wage). ---

minimum wage goes up… so does the price of everything. You think fuel prices made your pizza n wings cost a few more bucks? Wait till they have to give every 16 year old kid working there a $2 an hour raise! same as with every other place… prices will shoot up! Now the person who’s hardly educated but managed to work somewhere for a little bit that’s making $9.50 an hour wants a $2 raise too. edit: if minimum wage doesnt meet your living standards i have an idea for you… STOP BEING FUCKING LAZY AND GET A REAL JOB ---

I think he meant that if they want to make decent money, to go get an education/better job and not settle for mcdonnalds as a career choice 😛 [Next page](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/obama-wants-to-min-wage/57229.md?page=2)
