[QUOTE="aarondhgraham, post: 3743968, member: 13337"] Okay, I'll agree that it is possible to live off of minimum wage,,, But it isn't easy or pleasant in any manner. One can get an apartment that's essentially a dump,,, One can buy enough food if they don't go crazy with snacks. But after all of the monthly maintenance bills are paid,,, What is left for any kind of unexpected emergencies. I once walked everywhere for three months,,, I had to choose between car insurance (liability only),,, Or getting the brakes fixed so I could drive without killing anyone. So unless you want to have room mates (which sucks),,, And allow yourself to become a dependent of government programs,,, One had better get some kind of skills training and try for a better lifestyle. It wasn't easy and it took me the better part of nine years,,, But I finally got out of the minimum wage cycle. I wish I had an answer for this problem,,, But all the so-called remedies only lead to socialism. We're doomed! Aarond . [/QUOTE]
