You want a livable wage changing each year ?
You have 2 choices..get Congress to make a high min wage that changes each year or have government nationalize business and become the employer.
People will pay what others are willing to take and there's no lack of takers these days for min wage jobs.
McDonald's had over 1 million applications for that summer where they hired 50,000 workers.

Except 50,000 people probably filed more than one application.
Go ask the Wallymart workers. This is THEIR CLAIM. They consider themselves middle class workers.
I LOL'd at that one.
Perhaps they are right! With the low wages and increasing disparity of pay, perhaps the new middle class in America can no longer survive on these wages.
So people who made $1 / day in 1914 are worse off than the people who make $7.25/hour today?
And it's the fault of business?
[head smack]
Business is not the one DEBASING the money token supply.
Business is not the one increasing overhead, red tape and hidden costs.
Business is not at fault.
So you are in favor of communism then. Why not just come out and say it ?
No, and that is why I am against Walmart's practices. Their employment practices cannot sustain our country which will eventually lead to a new system of government. For every action, there is a reaction.

Well that can easily happen when you have a middle class mindset but a poverty level salary.
Something's gotta give.
These folks aren't even at blue collar working status but they think they are middle class.
