The minimum wage during the Great Depression translates to $400 a week. Today minimum wage, outside of one or two States which may have raised it substantially, is less than $300 a week.
The average cost of a home during the Great Depression, translated in todays money, would be about $70,000. The average cost of a home today is $400,000.
Fucking restaurant managers in the UK, even with all their Brexit BS and inflation, pays twice as much as it does in the US AND they get 6 weeks paid vacation.
The fucking US is where corporations go to make so much money its robbery. And the people just take it. The media has kept them talking about transgender bathrooms, and pipelines for almost 20yrs meanwhile the ultra rich loot the place.
