Minimum Wage
Are you satisfied with the minimum wage wherever you live?
Luckily I always earned higher than that, but still I feel bad for those who only earn that much as it's not suffice for survival. I mean sure it's enough to cover food costs, but once you pile up the cost of rent and other expenses there's hardly any money left if any. And if that person has children it makes it even harder to survive on such a low salary. Minimum wage is probably only enough for a single adult who lives a very humble lifestyle or for a teenager who's parents still cover all their major expenses and just wants to make some extra cash. “There is nothing permanent except change.†- Heraclitus of Ephesus |

RE: Minimum Wage
Well there are people who actually earn less than the minimum wage, so in that sense the people earning minimum wage are lucky to be earning that much. But yes, in general, especially in today's society it is hard to make a living... not just for those earning minimum wage, but for everyone except the rich. Even the middle class are struggling most of the time.
