Ted, Do you eat the same cake as Marie Antoinette?

First of all, you screwed up that line, since Marie Antoinette wasn't the one "eating the cake." (Makes me wonder whether you know what "cake" actually means in that context.)

Second, having worked in the food service industry as a teenager, I know how hard those jobs can be, so don't pretend that I'm being some sort of arrogant aristocrat with my views.

And third, do you think raising the minimum wage will solve the poverty problem? If so, why don't we raise the minimum wage to at least $20/hour, leading to an annual salary of $40K a year? That ought to be a comfortable wage for anyone, including those who work hard at jobs that are underappreciated, according to your accusation.
