So if a McDonald’s employee is starting off double what they were say 5 years ago are all the other jobs also doubled or did those people just get closer to the bottom?
Or let’s go even farther and say a descent job was 5x a McDonald’s employee, are they 5x now? So a good factory job is now $200/hr?
Or are we just trying to make everyone “equal”?
Ive been saying this all along. I think you are the only one that sees it too. Minimum wage here went from $11.50 to $14.50 all at once. That's a 26% increase. Im a licensed tool and die maker in a prototype shop for an automotive supply company Ive worked my sss off to get where I am and I make $31.00. The way I see it I just got closer to the bottom. Now all the things in stores, even going to a restaurant have all gone up to help employers pay for the wage increase they were forced to give there employees making minimum wage. The way I see it I should have gotten a 26% increase too.
Things must be quite different there than here. Reading this post seeing the factory jobs that cant get filled for $25. Theres people here in my area that would fight over that
