And then there are the lower middle class and poor Americans who got aced out of a job at your complex because they demand a living wage [for CA] of $15 per hour. $15 per hour is the "living wage"? At that rate if they work a 10 hour day that's $150 per day, and at 6 days per week $900 per week, and four weeks per month $3,600 per month. Damn! People out here start at $200 per month plus food and shared accomodation, 6 days a week, 9-10 hours per day. Your California living wage is 18x their salary. That's amazing. Cost of living here is probably ~60%-70% of what it is in California. And you may not believe it, but there are tons of "illegal tourists" here from India/Pakistan/Sri Lanka/Philippines/etc looking for those jobs, and having trouble finding them.
