No need to actually work for anything like your parents or grandparents did Well we weren't lucky enough to be born in the peak of a time where a massive war annihilated the infrastructure of pretty much every major competitor and artificially inflated worker incomes due to decreased global competition. We weren't the ones who made $12 an hour (in 2017 dollars) working minimum wage jobs in a time where cost of living was dramatically lower. We weren't the ones who used hard won labor rights to get situated and then once we got our share, immediately start pulling those ladders up behind us by consistently fighting against all the labor rights they used when starting out. <cite>Duck-I-Says posted [p:886141941] in Fast food ...
