    If you’ve been on minimum wage for 50 years, you’re doing something wrong.

      Be born in a small town hours away from anywhere. All the jobs in your town pay minimum wage. Remember you have no public transportation and no support. Now crawl out of that.

      Poverty is something very difficult to claw your way out of.

      Although I meant ‘over’ rather than ‘for.’

      There’s not enough higher level jobs. Someone will work minimum wage their entire life. They deserve to be treated humanely.
