        Have you ever actually worked at McDonald’s yourself, or do you think people working jobs on their feet 40 hours a week deserve to starve with their families on minimum wage as they have to rely on govt assistance bc corporate welfare has destroyed the ability to earn a living?

        Oh no, you probably think that you’re the one with a “real job” deserving six-figure salary for tweeting all dad and farting up moronic conspiracy theories on YouTube, but people who do actual labor are beneath you and might as well die. They do the work; they deserve the money.

        The profits generated by “burger flippers” who then can’t afford basic necessities are innumerable, & they put forth more effort than any of the CEOs seeing the benefit of others’ work. You don’t understand, of course. You think you’re smarter & better & work harder. You don’t.

        Well guess those burger flippers better put themselves to the test and quit working for the man. I mean if you think you deserve better go get better, quit making excuses and get results. Pity will never get you far!

        It’s really easy to do snarky quips, bradnumbers. But they bust their asses to be the butt of racist redneck jokes online. And all the jobs appearing are blue collar jobs. They deserve living wages. They deserve food, shelter, health care. All humans do.

        But I will agree with you that America has the worst education system in the world. We spent more money than any other Nation, and we have the least competent teachers

        I wouldn't blame all the teachers. We stopped paying them. We demanded they become more than educators. We punished them for poor scores. We priced them out of college. We refused them benefits. Our education system is fucked because we treated it like a factory floor.

        I absolutely agree with that. Teachers, especially public school teachers, are disrespected in this country when they should be revered!!

        Where do teachers get excellent pay? The are very few districts where teachers in the US are paid well, let alone compensated for actual work. There are a huge number of districts where wages in the first ten years don't exceed $28k/year that's intolerable for teachers.
