But you're not ENTITLED to be paid enough to live on. Although you may think you are.

Some people aren't worth what they're paid. Those people are replaced by touch-screens. And unfortunately, the policies of this administration are such that the incentive is to replace them sooner rather than later.

When you start talking about raising the minimum wage, places like Chilis and McDonalds are listening. The realize it can destroy their businesses and they're not going to allow that to happen. They will simply make other plans.
