Yep. That sounds like the typical response that minimum wage workers are all inept mouth breathers.

Let me clue you in on a well kept secret:

Wages are commensurate with the skill levels required for the job.

I guess you want to sweep floors and clean commodes in McDonalds while getting paid $100.00 an hour with a month sick leave, full medical benefits, 2 months vacation time and either a mansion in Beverly Hills or an apartment overlooking Central Park in New York City...

Whatever happened to...

Four hours of pushing broom
Buys an eight-by-twelve four-bit room


Now that room is $20 per night.

A wise man once said:



Waiting for the winds of change
To sweep the clouds away
Waiting for the rainbow's end
To cast its gold your way
Countless ways
You pass the days

Waiting for someone to call
And turn your world around
Looking for an answer
To the question you have found
Looking for
An open door

You don't get something for nothing
You can't have freedom for free
You won't get wise
With the sleep still in your eyes
No matter what your dreams might be

What you own is your own kingdom
What you do is your own glory
What you love is your own power
What you live is your own story
In your head is the answer
Let it guide you along
Let your heart be the anchor
And the beat of your own song

You don't get something for nothing
You can't have freedom for free
You won't get wise
With the sleep still in your eyes
No matter what your dreams might be

McDonalds is hard work, security guard jobs are the best... getting paid to sit in a car and listen to the radio..

Save your breath. Or fingertips. There is no helping professional victims.

I am not college educated but I'll wager that the French taxes are much higher than American taxes...

List of countries by tax rates - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

BTW, the French economy is collapsing due to it's socialist habits...

1) France enforces its borders.

2) The French don't like Americans, i.e. Americans would find it an unhospitable place to live.

Edit: Correction.... Since the military now has an 80% rejection rate would not be a good idea with your job skills being nil...

How many different realities are there?
