        No but minimum wage isn't meant to live off of. Its a starting point. If you don't like minimum wage, don't be a minimum worker.

        Grow up, mkay? Minimum wage was never intended to be a wage to pay the rent with. Never.

        Nooo YOU grow TF up. You are absolutely right. You think that's why there's an interest in RAISING MINIMUM WAGE so people can TRY to thrive off of it? It probably never occurred to you...ohhhh privilege. Got it.pic.twitter.com/z1wvLkXmAB

        Raising the minimum wage only increases the cost of other products and services (ie, food, housing, etc.). If people want a decent place to live, they need to stop protesting for a higher minimum (entry) wage and start upgrading their skills so they can earn a higher wage.

        That's why it's called minimum wage. It is not and was never intended to be the end-all career goal.

        Where have you been??Minimum wage hasn't covered the rent in well over 12 years. That's as long as I've been counting. If there aren't 2 wage earners in the place, you'd better get a 2nd job. Took you long enough to notice.

        This story's about a decade late. TPTB have been increasing rents as well as eliminating affordable spots with great intention. And wage has been stagnant since the 1970s.

        Additionally, more and more places refuse to take animals, making it near-impossible for pet-owners to find shelter. Trailer (mobile home) prices have even become ridiculous.
