I think Mr. Jeff’s IQ might be hovering around 70… given his spelling of “their” and his lack of apostrophes where appropriate. But, in our fallen world, he probably has a better job than some of the minimum wage employees he likes to bash on.

Reread your last three sentences– you’re absolutely right. That was the point I was making: that people’s wealth and the national economy depend on keeping a significant portion of the population working for lower class wages. So why should it bother YOU if someone continues to work at minimum wage his whole life? I don’t think unambitious people are any more of a detriment to society than overambitious people are.

Oh, and one more thing. how many people do you know that work for minimum wage thier whole fucking lives? If you do know someone like that, drop an anvil on thier head becuase they are truly a waste (exceptions made of course for those whose IQ test below 70). If Jaunita can’t make a good living cleaning houses (which is bullshit becuase I knew two maids growing up that lived in my middle class neighborhood) then LEARN a fucking SKILL. go to college (its called student loans and they’re easy as shit to get). likewise, if you have so little ambition that you want to work in a fast food establishment the rest of your life, well then, fuck off! learn a trade! Believe me, the world is need of good mechanics and plumbers!Here’s something to think about. Imagine a political system so radical as to promise to move more of the poorest 20% of the population into the richest 20% than remain in the poorest bracket within the decade? You don’t need to imagine it. It’s called the United States of America. What does this mean? It means its only the truly unambitious/felon drowd that works minimum wage for more than a few years anyway. People who work hard (and learn on the job) don’t stay at minimum wage! Oh, and how long do you think mcdonald’s would stay in business selling a twenty dollar hamburger? not long, and then mr. burger flipper wouldn’t even have that minimum wage job. Then, he would be earning the REAL minimum wage, which is 0 (being unemployed)
