Where is the father?
How about they get a better fucking job. Minimum wage isn't supposed to be a living wage. Its for people in college and higschool
Dont have a kid if you cant afford one
FUCKING NIGGER FUCK
Minimum wage should be ZERO.
Why don't we just give everyone 200$/h minimum huh? Then we can ALL be rich right!? Is thta how the economy works you dumbass nigger!?
Here is an idea. You don't have a stable source of revenue...don't have a child and concentrate on getting skills that can land you a better job in the future.
Also where is the father?
This is life on $15.00... replaced by robots.
>look at thumbnail
>fat woman
I'm not even watching this. They're clearly getting on just fine.

Oh no! LaQuanda might have to improve her skillset and learn something to earn more. Her baby daddy Terrell will actually have to stick around and do the same.
Basically all you have to do is be willing to work hard, be in moderate shape, and not have a rap sheet a mile long and $15/hr jobs are handed out like candy where I live, which is flyover, low cost of living Ohio. I cannot comprehend how stupid you have to be to work for minimum wage outside of when you are under 18, let alone a full grown adult
fuck off
GUYS STOP RESPONDING TO THESE POSTS
>raise minimum wage
>rent goes up
woooooooooooow bugged money mechanics
The mom looks a bit heavy to me, must not be doing too badly.

>22
>Single mom
>No education
>No experience or trade skills
>Lives in a 2 floor apartment.
>Expects to get by and if she can't its the fault of the minimum wage or the government, not her own, not the result of her choices.
The only serious discussion amerifats, or anyone for that matter, should have is to cut down on benefits so that these parasites can stop leeching from good taxpaying people.
Honestly demoshits, it's as simple as this. Like it or not, workers are simply entities in the law of supply and demand. Getting rid of the illegals you love will decrease the supply of workers. Then, the minimum wage will naturally rise. Increase it to 15 with a large pool of workers, then they all get replaced by automation
She certainly hasn't missed a meal.
No dumbass. They should make evrything free duh.
Doesn't seem so bad to me?? Unless they're in a burger king I don't see the poverty or desperation.
>Where is the father?
Nice one bros, you know he's across town trying to find a wye grill.
Minimum wage rises the more illegals you deport.
So if you want a higher standard of living you better get ICE on speed dial.
>I'm so lazy that I refuse to learn a skill worth more than $7.50 an hour
Idiots.
This is how cities die.
You increase minimum wage you have to increase housing. You increase housing to have to increase affordable housing. You increase affordable housing you have to increase taxes. People living in the city move out because taxes cost to much. They then have to increase taxes on those who stayed in the city, to make up for the ones that moved out, thus making them even more poor.
I don't understand this, first I saw how much she got for working and felt pretty bad but then she was getting food stamps and child care, medicaid, etc. and her money didn't seem so bad anymore.
She's fat, the apartment look alright, both hers and the sons clothes look fine.
What the fuck is she complaining about? She's 22 and a single mom, how about not having become a single mom and gotten good work first and not becoming pregnant by a nigger, get pregnant by a black man instead.
I've never actually heard of a wage that low in my 10 years in the workforce aside from fast food and paid internships. Lowest wage I've ever received was 8.25 as ice cream scooper at Baskin Robbins
In jail
the whole point of the minimum wage was to keep out undesirable races and throw unproductive workers out of employment so they could be sterilized, when it was first invented. this should be brought back.

I'd like to see the welfare receipts. I bet they're quite high.
You don't magically become more valuable because someone passes a minimum wage law.
lol, i make too much money on minimum wage for my age, no reason to raise it
Thank god I make double the minimum wage at Walmart.I have as many qualifications as this nigress
>increases minimum wages
>small to medium companies who struggles have to pay their employees higher wages, bankrupt or raise prices
>big corps sees this as a loss of value, increase prices to have the same net benefit or more...
>buying power didn't increase or decreased for minimum wage workers
Minimum wage needs to follow inflation and that's it. Any more and companies will start to hire more undocumented under the table at lower wages or invest in automation and AI.

You amerilards have no idea how good you actually have it.
Come 2 murica with yer fancy STEM degree. The great lakes area is full of scandies. Buy a truck and guns.
You'll be making twice as much and paying half as much in taxes. What will you do with all that FREEDOM?
>I don't buy fresh fruits stuff like dat cuz it's not guaranteed it's gonna be eaten all
I hate how much sympathy I had for the poor until I became homeless and got out of it. No government programs, just a hunger to work, learning to make cheap meals, discipline, and patience for delayed gratification.
9/10 a poor person is blowing it on smokes, beer, expensive cell phones instead of cheap ones, lotto tickets, shitty expensive fast food, or drugs.
Being extremely poor or homeless can happen to anyone. Staying extremely poor or homeless can only happen to certain people.
well sven thats what happens when you live in a socialist cuntree
but just imagine how many prison meals you will provide for the migrants that rape your women
assuming they spend one day in prison that is
Well she doesn't look hungry. How the fuck is it all these poor fucks complaining about minimum wage are always land whales? Really ruins their argument
I wish i had a girlfriend who did this.
Fashion disaster tbqh
Her life is not even bad. She has a decent housing, can provide for her child, still manages to be fat and have money to buy decent clothes.
What would her life be like in Africa as a single mother?
fucking racist white males not giving our brown brothers enough money for programs and food makes me sick I'm gonna cuck myself right now to show solidarity with my negrodeos
Also she wears a fucking wig. There is no way a nappy haired nigger looks like pocahontas
Seriously listen to this user. Get a nice rural house, surrounded by warm fields and song birds (not a fucking lie these are all over the united states, you just have to be willing to drive anywhere from 30-45 minutes a day.) You be making anywhere from 60-100K a year, while living expenses tend to be 20-50k depending on where you live in the great lakes region.
I am 21 years old. No college.
I make 22 hour and 50k a year
Get a fucking skill and try harder at getting a bloody job
Service desk here
Raising minimum wage hurts everyone, including the poor.
>7.5$ an hour
God, I wish.
you can become fat on $7,50?
only in America
niggers dont to eat each day like humans
>22k after tax with a STEM degree
Jesus fuck. I work at a fucking call center and make 31k net a year. What the fuck are you guys doing?
What if you had the shirt made anyway and banged out whoever got too close? I have to believe there's a cottage industry for sluts to try to ""subvert the shirt"" for bragging rights. If there's no original girl, everyone wins.
this. i got a minimum wage job in highschool and stuck around for a dollar raise every year

She's lucky she has one at all
Also
>using YouTube
Lol
10$ is with inflation which is what Arizona, Utah and a few other states did.
anything beyond that is fucking suicide in terms of econmics and would kill entire economies. Which is what Oregon and Washington did.
>She thinks that this is the same as giving raises
>Doesn't realize that pictured nog will become unemployed
No
She says she makes $240-260 every 2 weeks, that's around 17 hours a week. She's just fucking lazy

That was a couple of years ago and I was there legally
i have no sympathy for people who breed and bring children to the world while being shit poor
Raising the minimum wage is objectively good, but is only a temporary solution. Universal Income is the true goal.
The production of goods increases as a result of technological improvements and automation. This is unquestionably true. So what's our end game?
>To accommodate increasing populations we have to increase production and efficiency
>To do this we automate more roles within production.
>We automate as much as our technology will allow because that will always be more efficient than manual human labor. This includes everything from factory work, farming, and mining, but also everything up to surgical procedures, financial analysis, and transportation of people and goods.
>Hell, we would automate white collar jobs if possible, including litigation, medical innovation, or city planning as soon as computers can perform those roles adequately.
So we're left with two scenarios:
>Via capitalism, all wealth is controlled by the 6 guys that own the companies that produce the machines and software that perform 99+% of all jobs, while the rest starve to death
Or
>Universal Income for all citizens.
Capitalism only works in a system devoid of automated work. Don't get me wrong, it was obviously the best system we had 250 years ago, but we have computers now. Time to reevaluate. (Sort of like how we stopped mandating that 50% of all livestock had to be sacrificed to the sun god so that we could safely sail across the ocean or some shit like civilizations did 2000 years ago).
Constantly improve and update your working systems or stagnate and die.
You can buy a 2 liter bottle of generic soda for less than a buck. It's chock full of sugar, which will be mostly stored as belly fat.
>Mexican
she's bringing home $800 per week ($40,0000/year) in gibsmedats.
not too shabby
this is how we treat the parasite class; 50 million descendants of our former slave class
her "labor" is probably worth $1.00/hour so she should be thankful she doesn't actually have to compete.
> I haven't had a raise
YOU WORK AT MCDONALDS
>single mother living on min wage
That's why these numbnuts should think ahead before having kids. Oh wait they'll just get on welfare.
Why are liberals such economic retards? What do you think happens when companies have to pay ALL their workers more? Yes they have to raise prices...all companies will to survive. Then what happens? Inflation. She still won't have more purchasing power. It's an endless cat chasing it's tail. If raising min wage raises people out of poverty, then let's have $100/hour and we'll all be rich. Why not a million dollars an hour? Then we'll all just have to work one hour. Oh wait inflation, it will be zimbabwe money. You get a million, you get a million, everyone gets millions!!!
fwiw McD's would never let her go over 25 because they have to start giving benefits as they get closer to 40 hours, depending on the area. Walmart gets around this by scheduling almost no one to show up and instead having all employees be """on call""" to show up within a certain amount of time or get fired if it's not specifically banned by law.
They're deadend jobs for a reason, any possible benefit you could get from working there has been stripped out after years of labor engineering at HQ. Most people who work at these places figure it out early on and get the fuck out of there. It's no surprise she's making $100/week but spending enough time going to/from McD's for an hour or two here or there that she couldn't even have another job if she wanted to.
Not defending her, just saying.
Oh, well hoped you didnt like it. You're not coming back.
1. why would you have a kid if you do not have the means to raise him
2. She's fat
3. "i dont want my child to struggle the way i had to struggle"
BITCH THEN DONT HAVE A CHILD AND GET YOUR SHIT TOGETHER
4. She lives in her own by paying 30%? what is this? what kind of commie welfare is america??
5. Medicaid i'll give you that
6. she buys all frozen foods because "fresh veggies" will get wasted. BITCH BUY BEANS AND RICE NOT FROZEN PIZZA
"They making billions of dollars, why should i rely on them?"
GIT
GUD
BITCH
YES PLEASE.
This is unironically why I support raising the minimum wage. The only true progress is technological progress.
Also, frozen foods are more expensive you stupid fucking nigger.
Christ sake I hate this shit so much
Yes raise it to $15, I should be getting at least $40 for hell desk support.
$50 tops.
My lowest was $10 working at a fucking gas station.
with 7.50 an hour she would have the single biggest paycheck in my entire fucking country
not even prime ministers and ceos make that much here
The real shame is by not requiring some type of sterilization while on the dole it only encourages them to mass produce while the rest of us are at work. I hate that feel.
kek
Based kurwa.
>tfw visa waving country passport
Why would you not want tourists in your country though ?
>tfw nearly a third of my income goes to taxes
>tfw fucking furoius when seeing all those gibs
Most demoralizing shit I've read all day.
she needs to go back to nigger africa with her nigger spawn.
Cost of living though. I lived in the Philippines for a year and no one made shit, but buying fresh dinner from local women cost LITERALLY 7 US cents.
That's not true at all. Frozen foods are cheap as fuck where I live.
This. As I said here:
Tech increases are the only real path forward and our society needs to embrace that or were going down the shitter.
if both the mother and the father worked, they would have an effective $15/h family income, on top of that, given that the father will earn a greater percentage (their words not mine), the sum would realistically go up to like $16.50/h
It's time we had a serious discussion about rounding all niggers up and sending them back home to africa where they can leech loot rape and kill each other off the backs of their people.
Frozen foods are NEVER cheaper than bulk rice, beans, or veggies. She even says she doesn't buy it because it'll go bad. It only goes bad if you don't eat it. If you don't eat it that's only because you don't like it.
That's my only problem there. If you're that poor you don't get to be fucking picky. Saddle up faggot and eat your beans.
Enjoy that feel comrade...for the greater good!

Get fucked.
