Yes it does Tim. 45% of fast food workers qualify for benefits. A teen living at home has his or her income counted against the families income. So either very few fast food workers make enough to not qualify for benefits, and remember that the managers are considered to be fast food workers, or a majority are not teens. Having been in actual fast food places, I can guarantee you that the majority are not teens, living at home or otherwise. Granted, that can vary a lot from region to region. But I currently live just feet south of Plano. Google it to get the demographics.

Suffice it to say it isn't an impoverished area. Especially considering the cost of housing is fairly low. A lot lower than, say, Pittsburgh.
