I understand a fantasy and a one time thing like tipping on a guys night out at a strip club, but some of these guys think they are in a relationship with someone they will never meet and don’t even know their real name or life details.

    Minimum wage in 1975 was around 2 dollars and many rentals are two rooms or more. Grocery store may have averaged higher as most included meat cutters on prepared products and I bet that includes management. The shelve stocker likely getting 2 dollars an hour.

    Ya let us value that the same as a guy working in a mine or someone developing software. Get serious people. We are paying to subsidize someone to work at Walmart is because we choose to do this. And why wouldn’t a person want to work a higher value job if the government is willing to top them up to a higher rate?

      yeah I see your point and the fact that the research supports your conclusion but I don’t like it so I’m going to ignore reality

      Ok buddy. If you’re not willing to have this discussion in good faith then neither am I. To wit: I made some points with data and included some examples as demonstration. You’re hung up on the examples and refuse to think about the points or the data as a result.
