You ever work in a lumberyard? My job was to catch the 4x8 sheets of plywood as the machine that just pressed spat them out and stack them on a hydraulic lift.
I worked on a convener belt unloading hot pans of shortcake as they came out of the oven all night.

It was fast and hot.

I burned myself and they were like GO FASTER!

But I burned myself!

Don't be pussy!

I have a deep catalogue of shitty jobs.

Having enough money to survive by working a full time job, without government assistance, is not a business deal.

It's a basic human right.
So everyone is entitled a job that pays them to live wherever they want :unsure:

What about teenagers who live at home- do they deserve the same amount of pay as a single mother in her 40s?

Sick strawman bro.

Nobody said anything about buying houses in coastal California on a MickyD wages.
Rent price is correlated with purchase price. A coastal California home will rent for $3-4K, which yes, would require a $100k/year salary (or $50/hr full time) to cover without being house poor.

Oh man, did anybody say anything about renting a place on the beach?

If you work at MickeyD's you most likely live in the valley and have quite a few roommates.

We are talking living paycheck to paycheck, not buying houses in La Jolla.

Do you think you can rent ON THE BEACH for $3-4K/month :unsure: :roflmao:

Cool :shaka:

And what do you think it costs to even rent a studio in La Jolla :unsure:

Even your insults are shite.
You: Having enough money to survive by working a full time job, without government assistance, is not a business deal.
It's a basic human right.

Me: Where would we find this right, and who's obligated to pay for it?

Can you answer the question, or are you just going to squirt away in some other direction....again,
