So this new minumum wage thing?
I don't know what you see in your towns and maybe $15 an hour is a lot of money down there but up here where there trying the same thing. Were at $11 something an hour now. A starter home up here is $400,000-500,000. Just to rent a room in someone's house is $400-500 a month a **** *** apartment is $1000-1200. A good apartment is $1600 plus. A house is $1600- $2400 plus utilities. And I live 20 mins outside of Toronto it's worse there.
If your lucky enough to have a job that will give you 40 hours a week your take is about $350 so $1400 a month good luck with that lol.
A lot of you act that people want a hand out at $15 dollars an hour they just want a respectable wage.
It's not kid working in these fast food places or even young adults there's some of course but a lot of 25 all the way to seniors and a lot with college degrees.
And a lot are women and as a cab driver I find a lot of women have 2-3 jobs trying to support there families it's not laziness.
