You make a LOT of valid points. BUT I personally know middle age guys and gals that lost their jobs in 2008 and are now working at Minimum Wage Jobs as their JOBS....and there are many uneducated women with kids at home how NEED Food Stamps....what's up with that. Millions are NOW working like this as their Profession....Some not educated enough...some horrible experiences in life and others just NEED the stinking Job. MY POINT is that we can't have a Country like this in the long run and SOMETHING gotta be tweaked here. I personally will pay more for things to have a Living Wage for all...Just me Personally....Most of these Monstrous Companies JUST CRY THE BLUES and will STILL make lots of money even if they pay $17 and hour....They make Fortunes and I don't believe a thing they say. SO....I will continue to state my case through songs....only do this here and there. I think my last like this was LIFESTYLES OF THE POOR & THE HOMELESS. Just the way I see it. Guess I'm an Idealist living in a Ruthless, Greedy World.....lol
