It's hard to wrap your head around in a sense. On one hand...I make a decent wage, and I'm the only one working in my family. Sometimes I struggle. Imagining someone who makes a fraction of my pay who goes to school and might even have to work 2 jobs to survive, and may even have a family, even might be the only person working.... Well that's rough man. I'd usually be hella quick to blurt out -" My wage will seem like less because the cost of everything else will rise." Ok... sure... maybe it will go up as well. Even still... the struggle is real for those trying to make ends meat. I dislike the people who fight to increase their wage high enough so that they can make more money with the intention of keeping that simple job that requires little to no thought... because they should strive to better themselves. At the same time, there [i]are[/i] tons of people trying to better themselves that look like zombies from the stress of 2 jobs and school. I feel for those people. I struggled myself, at a very crappy retail job. Wishing I made more. Fortunately things panned out for me in the end. Despite this, I still have friends who stood at those jobs all those years. They've not yet even hit the goal in mind for minimum wage.
