So it's a bad career decision to work for minimum wage. Unlike what republicans say....no matter how hard and how determined some work to better themselves they will never get ahead.
Yes, if you're 32 and working MW the odds are you've made some bad career, education, training choices.

No, if you are 32 chances are you are trying to support a family. How can you go to school when you have to work to support them. And maybe these people are working 2 or 3 minimum wage jobs. You really don't know.

People like to call low wage workers lazy, dumb, drug addicts, whatever. The real issue is that a certain segment of the population feels that they're entitled to things without paying for them. They expect you and me and every other tax payer to subsidize their trips to Wal Mart and McDonald's, but then have the audacity to also rail against the social safety net (not only do they not want to pay the workers at the store, they also don't want to pay taxes to make up the difference between pay and actual cost of living), as if people should work full time and go home to some shanty town that would make a refuge camp look ritzy.

How many "Thems" are we talking about and how long did it take to create these "Thems?" It is 9 months min in between, correct? Unless you are Octomom.

Them could mean a wife and a child. What does it matter?

This is just a generalization. How do you even know this do you know all 32 year old people and why they make min wage. Do you also realize that many people may have had a raise but are still barely above min wage. It is easy to sit at home and say bad choices they made without actually knowing it it is true.

Conservatives have low-wage workers in a gotcha - either they made bad career choices if they work low-wage jobs, or are mooching parasite slacker bums if they reject low-wage jobs.

well considering the MW is for UNSKILLED workers....if they are 32 and don't have a SKILL, then just what have they done for the last 14+ years
