>> Sterry's expenses ran to $500 per month; his wages only covered half of that

Sterry didn't have a job. A full-time job at minimum wage will bring in $1,200/month plus Advance EITC payments. Health care is free. Food Stamps a couple hundred a month.

Sterry should be able to get by.

>> Suddenly, Cindy was making thousands of dollars a week.

Yeah, lap dances and whatever else pay well. Should we raise the minimum wage to "thousands of dollars a week" so this person can retain her dignity?

She had her price.
