[QUOTE="TUT, post: 1766081, member: 29298"] I consider it petty especially when we are all close enough to paycheck to paycheck, we are a lot more alike than different. I am not saying there isn't different wages, I am not proposing communism. But I don't understand a job that if you put 40 hours in, that isn't enough to support that one person and too many jobs are now like this. So we need to raise the bar, in doing so for a period of time wages/jobs in that area will be similar in pay. Over time the market will re-adjust and jobs above minimum grade will be increased to get and retain people. Think how much stress would be off a lot of our children that they can get a job that can support them at the basic level... you know when we had that and we did, those were called the good ole days. Today too many work 2-3 part with no beni's and still don't have enough to support themselves. [/QUOTE]
