Look for yourself 2 working adults 2 kids - is $15/hr a “living wage?”
No one tell old man Bernard China is leaps and bounds ahead of on climate.
Oh and the genocide…simple “disagrements”. Dude can’t mention genocide.
I live in bum fucking nowhere
One person trying to live off of 15 an hour here? You cannot.
Two adults living together making a combined 30? Doable with no kids and no extra expenses (better not have health issues, or car problems, or any dreams or aspirations beyond living with bare minimums)
I’m also in Bumfuck, though a bit closer to civilization and even $30/hr isn’t enough. Rent has gone up 200% in the past 6 years and food has gone up almost 300%
Of my $1000/wk 90% goes to just paying bills, food, and rent.

The only time it felt like me and my partner was making enough to live comfortably and save, I was making over $30/hour and she was making around $20/hour. We have 2 kids.
$15 am hour as a living wage is a fucking joke and it has been since it was first suggested.
If someone like Bernie is going to croak soon and still manage to take this position, that just means that is his genuine beliefs.
Either that or they have the heart attack gun aimed at his grandchildren
Regardless, he’s useless to us now, just another imperialist ghoul attempting to hitch the progressive wagon to genocide.
China isn’t gonna follow their lead on this. At this point they probably realise that it would be suicide
disgraceful coward
Living where I am is $30, min is $16
Wow in my area it’s $19 and $12 is poverty wages. Most jobs start at $12 and to hit $19-20 you’re looking at having an experienced resume.

I was making $64/hr with one dependent, 150k in student loans w/ wild interest rates, 1 bedroom 1 bath rent, car payment on a Honda, 1 pet. I wasn’t being frugal, yes, but literally was only saving like $3000 a year.
This was at, what I felt, was a class traitor job, so I left. Still struggling to find a full time job in my field that does not turn me into a class traitor
Even if I were to have doubled my savings, that’s still only $500 savings a month on a 125k salary. Shit is fucking wild out here.
And these are not even the crumbs they will actually give you if you are lucky, these are the crumbs that are way too good and unrealistic for them to give you.
