$15.00 an hour isn't a lot of money.

Why yall nikkas constantly pushing STEM and medical
It’s cacs I know with a 11th grade education making 6 figures as a union electrician or union millwright..I went to apply to the pipefitters union and I was the only breh there outta like 70
Folks push STEM and Medical because there are simply more jobs. In New England, where I live, RNs can make $90k. There are around 21k electricians in the state of IL, but there are around 700k nurses. There is a shortage in both fields. Which field do you think has the highest number of job openings? A Nurse is gonna get guaranteed hours and benefits, not so for the electrician. I personally know nurses who don't put up with crappy bosses, as they know they can quit and find a job at a nursing home, outpatient facility, or other hospital. Good luck burning a bridge amongst the good ole boy system in the trades. How many pipefitters do you think there are in IL, 2000, 1000, 500? Drop another 200 in the state and watch their pay rates drop. "Learn a Trade" is the new "Learn to Code" meme. Its simply not a universal solution. It may make for great advice to a particular individual, in a particular location, but that's about it.

you don't understand how the labor market works do you? More people unemployed means more downward pressure on wages.
I did it at 18. I was a union laborer apprentice doing heavy highway construction making $24 an hour. This was in 2017/18. Great money
Pay rates will never drop if you’re in a union

10 cents an hour is too much for trash service. But the solution isnt to punish and disincentivize honest hard working employees with meager wages.$15 is way too much for people working at McDonald's and Wendy's......the service they provide is TRASH!!
Now people that work at Chick-fil-A should easily be making $15....they only hire strong workers with great attitude
It would be much more practical to bring back standards and just to get rid of the dead weight to make up the cost.
But it is 2023 and being lazy, gaming the system and getting the bag at the expense of the rest of society, the few of us with an iota of integrity left who value hard work and fair play, is not just a valid life choice, but literally encouraged, supported and glorified. The name of the game is for both sides, employers and employees, to compete to see who can scam, exploit and fukk the other side the hardest. With the rest of us, the fukking customer, stuck in the middle catching all the strays.
Welcome to the manufactured apocalypse yall
Buckle in, cause they are literally just getting started

In 2002 that’s decent money. Today not so much.
Yeah $15 an hour ain't shyt especially if you live in the city or near it cost of living has shot through the roof so a living wage should be around $20-$25 and before anyone says shyt these corporations make billions on billions they got the money they just tell you they don't...

I remember when I was making this much doing too much work, now I get paid more than double that doing less than half that work remote.
