$70k/yr is considered low-income. $20/hr is only $41,600/yr if you work full-time and never take time off. $20/hr only sounds high because we’ve been told over and over it’s too high by the same businesses making record profits.

@missmayn @zephycat229 $35/hr 40 hrs a week Will get you to about $70k And no; this is not a high income.

@harpua71burner @missmayn @zephycat229 If you loved freedom, you’d want even a lowly a burger flipper to earn a solid living wage.

@InsightTweeting @missmayn @zephycat229 Why?

@harpua71burner @InsightTweeting @missmayn @zephycat229 Every person working a job deserves a fair and livable wage, at the very least No matter how much you do or don't respect their job, it is still a job, and they are still working Society wouldn't function without minimum-wage jobs such as food service or retail

@IlSterlinglI @InsightTweeting @missmayn @zephycat229 No they don't. Not all work is worth that.

@harpua71burner @InsightTweeting @missmayn @zephycat229 No, it's not, because minimum wage should be 25 according to inflation Every job should minimum at least match inflation in the area that it's in

@AddyRizzler @InsightTweeting @missmayn @zephycat229 😂

@harpua71burner @InsightTweeting @missmayn @zephycat229 Hey, someone's gotta do it. You really expect someone to work fast food and not even afford to have a place and some regular meals in this economy? Don't wanna hear you complain about slow service from an understaffed kitchen if not.

@harpua71burner @InsightTweeting @missmayn @zephycat229 Not going to rag on people to make a living but if someone flipping burgers got $70k which I’m around as a college educated chemist makes me reevaluate my life and career thus far
