This is America! This is slavery!

7.50 x 80 = 600 after taxes about 500$ not 240....so she is not working full time at 7.50 and has a child. This is noone elses fault or responsibility. work more, get a better job.

Get a better job.
When you have to catch a bus that runs 2-3 times a day, not convenient to your shift to get anywhere near a place that offers a better job.
Not to mention finding childcare or affording it to work longer hours.
Fuck that.
Pay a living wage. It's about time we recognize the slave masters for what they are. Cut or cap CEO salaries. Why does anyone need to make more than a half million a year? Seriously, if you can't find affordable housing, a decent car, childcare, and groceries for a half million you're just greedy. No one works hard enough to deserve more than that. No one.
It's all about paradigms and the lies you're being sold.

I agree with much that you say... but I must point out that for me it's less about how hard we all work in relation to each other.... it's about the choices we make in our lives!

Choose to save or choose to spend.
choose to smoke/drink coffee/do drugs, etc.. choose to save
Choose to play all day and party all night or choose to study, do free community service, etc..
Choose to procreate at a young age or choose not to.

Unfortunately it's not this simple.. the choices we make are much more complex than that and the options we are given sometimes seem to have been chosen by others for us whether knowingly or not. We do not all start out on an even playing field and their are obvious and not so obvious advantages and disadvantages in life for all of us.

Our chooses in life, in a way, should determine what we deserve...


Lord.. I don't know what I'm trying to say.. could ramble on for hours.. So many problems it's hard to address just one.
