Fun fact, people who work at Walmart have to use food stamps because Walmart doesn’t pay a living wage.

I actually considered using food stamps when I was working for close to minimum wage several years ago. I never filed the paperwork, but I definitely considered it.
Walmart jobs shouldn’t be minimum wage. I’m amazed they can find employees for what they pay, and the amount of work expected.
I agree. My post was in support of how ridiculously low the minimum wage is compared to cost of living.
Don't forget Ross. Fuck Ross.
Also student workers in state university systems. They have fucking unions somehow and make considerably less than minimum wage for intellectually challenging, skilled academic jobs with long hours. The admins count on their desperation, because if you don't take on these jobs regardless of the cost, then you're not going to get accepted to advanced degree programs or hired as a real professor.
I have no idea how it's legal.
