That is probably one of the greatest tricks of capitalism. Have people fight among each other while ignoring companies exploiting workers.
Should a person making food at McDonalds be able to afford rent and groceries with their paycheck?

Fast food law passed in California this year makes it so fast food workers make $22/hour minimum.
$22 a hour. For any fast food workers. 16 year olds out here can work for $22/hour. They just dont want the jobs.
1) thats more than base pay at corporate jobs like verizon, banks, tmobile, at&t etc.
2) they still cant find workers.
Its not a hourly issue. Kids just lazy as fukk.

Most fast food workers are not working full time.
All full time positions should reflect the cost of living in that state. And the people saying those jobs shouldn’t be long term don’t realize there is only so much room for everyone in a field, or income bracket. There are far more minimum wage jobs than higher earning positions. Plus, you have people who may not have the time to go to college, because they have to afford rent, or help family. And this is coming from a personal responsibility guy.

People used to be able to afford rent and groceries making 1.68/hr. So explain why it's wrong now?
IMO, you shouldn't expect to support a family on a fast food salary. But supporting yourself (ie 1 person) is not unreasonable. It used to be normal.
So for all the people saying "no", explain why it's wrong now, but was right before.

Minimum Wage in America: A Timeline | HISTORY
Since 1938, the U.S. federal government has established that workers are entitled to a base hourly wage. Which workers receive that minimum—and how much—has remained a political issue.

Imagine thinking working people don't deserve to live the most basic of lives

The cost of living is also higher in California. You make $22 an hour in Texas you can live a pretty decent life.
Its always been a job for adults.
Who else would be working there during school hours/ school days?
The whole tirade of "skilled" and "unskilled" workers is a way to divide up the working class

Like someone said in those comments. Why is McDonald’s open during school hours if it’s just for teenagers
Thanks to AI, those cacs will become obsolete fairly soon..

Americans don't like each other.
it use to be that way for a lot of people. some dude could work as a butcher, buy a house for his family, have two cars and the family goes on vacation every summer.
janitors use to be able to put their kids through college.
