Hard to afford a 2,000,000 clownbuck home on 8.50/hr. Maybe in 2005, but not anymore!

Yeah, the upper end is dead. Housing has to start over again from the gound up. Walmart pays ~8.50 and I think the Inn n Out burger pays a little more. When I was working as a prep cook 1985 or so the restaurant where I worked posted 4 openings for wait staff/busser and about 200 people showed up. The idiots in management made us stop what we were doing and take all the silverware off the tables- the evening wait crew was sooo pissed when they came in. I haven't seen anything like that around here yet.
