i'm okay with every job getting $15 an hour. It costs money to survive and it's an unrealistic expectation to "require" all of us to go back to college or work 2.5 jobs in order to survive and have a family.
No, it's ridiculous. Soon we'll see social workers getting paid the same as doctors. There is a reason we have low skill, low pay jobs. They are for high school students. People who want to earn more, need to DO MORE.
The yes votes here reflect a clear lack of understanding of economic principles.
We need fair wages for all. Not the Higher class or
the Middle class but for all. We need free healthcare
for all no matter what.
If the establishment it willing to payer them 15 dollars an hour then so be it.
No , I paid too much money for college. so no I'm not happy
How does what you paid in college affect that?
Use your brain and think about it
No you should think about it. People who flip burgers shouldn't be well off because you paid for college
You literally just blocked a dude because you're too lazy to explain something.
You're blocked too uneducated baphoon 😂😆😆
That was an invalid argument.
This "argument" if we can even call it that when the "opposition" can't even use an argument and just blocks the other person because themselves can't even accept that they're wrong, makes me laugh.
On point ^^^🤣
@RoadRunner650 i think she is trying to say she went to college and it was for higher pay, and they didn'tand they get higher pay
@HOAAH finally someone smart. thank you.. these men commenting have no brains
A bunch of Ricky retardos 😆😆
@SouthernGirl23 you seem like you have had quite a life to need to be talking trash about guys. College doesn't make you any smarter than a dropout and it's been proven.. If a guy ever made you feel like trash i apologize for them. You are definitely not smarter than anyone as the same as everyone else is not smarter than you.. We are all good at something.
@HOAAH in reality they pay you for what you know so if you're going to stick with a basic job like flipping burgers I agree they deserve a race because just like all the other jobs it's a job we all deserve to get paid enough to survive. the economy in the Bay Area is a joke everything is so expensive including gas while they're trying to keep minimum wage at peeled bone minimum. if I show you the applications that I seen where I'm working... Some of these applicants have very good education.. They may have preference but they are getting paid like the rest of us. That's how it is at times.
If the burgers are from my very specific recipe and I’m getting credit for it, then sure.
30K a year for flipping burgers huh... That’s some nasty inflation...
You should automate them out of a job for that wage.
You are correct. They will be automated out of those jobs. Quickly.
Depends on location. You may get paid 20 euros an hour in Belgium for doing that job. The living expenses quickly make up for it. Why shouldn't they get paid for their work?
That's way above what they should be paid, if they work 8 hours a day for the whole month they can get 10,000 a month!
My mom work as a secretary full time and works her ass off every day only to get paid 5,000 a month!
10,000 shekels and 5,000 shekels I meant
5000 which is 1,470, and 10,000 which is 2,941
These types of jobs are suppose to be starters and not career options. I work in corporate now but during my studying I worked the jobs no one else wanted , sat night, Sunday morning etc
You can't run a restaurant with highschool kids lol
*just highschool kids
Anyone said yes will eventually live in poor rest of their lives or just prefers being s slave to other people. Flipping burgers is a horrible job. Its why McDonald's has new employees every month.
I fully support this. Work has to pay or it's not worth doing. Work has to provide a living wage.
I could give a fu*k what they're paid. Whatever the owner thinks they deserve
Those fast food chains make enough money to pay those wages anyways and still have good profits.
Double the wages and double the price of the burgers. These jobs shouldn't end up being a life long job.
No, you'd split the $7.75 difference between the number of burgers the employee can produce in an hour.
@goaded So, if they still make the same number of burgers per hour, wouldn't they still cost twice as much to make?
No, because it would still use the same amount of power for the lighting and cooking, the same amount of meat, buns, etc.. If they make 40 burgers an hour, the price would go up by 20c. ("1,400 restaurants across Canada serv[e] more than 2.5 million customers per day" yourquestions.mcdonalds.ca/.../ = 1800 per restaurant per day.)
@goaded If you only take into consideration the person flipping the burgers, your right!. But that would be twenty cents times the number of employees, wouldn't it? But, you need to figure all of the other people involved with baking the buns, making the condiments, butchering the animals, farm wages, cost of the grains, milling the grains, trucking the products, janitors etc etc, being the same. Oh, I forget about management pay increases too.
The further you go back in the chain, the cheaper things get; a butcher can cut up a whole animal in less than an hour, and that will make many, many burgers. The guy driving a tractor worth a hundred thousands dollars can harvest corn by the ton.
More importantly, more people on minimum wage will be able to afford your slightly more expensive burgers...
@goaded You can have your beliefs and I'll have mine. Time will tell if the fifteen dollar and hour min. wage ever becomes a reality. by the way I started working at $1.75 per hour. Had more money in my pocket then, then I do now.
@Surely you can’t pay any attention to goaded he doesn’t even live in the US nor is he an American. He just is another liberal that loves to bash Americans
believe it or not $15 an hour is not that much nowadays it should even be considered minimum wage because it is? lol
They should make $30 an hour which would be possible if we deported illegal aliens and stopped waging war in shithole countries for oil for the Jews
1 corporate thug "earning" $500k a year disliked
Yea why not. They been working to get that change. Everyone else better do the same and put pressure on these companies that keep exploiting people
We should just print more money so everyone has money, god take that CAPITALISTS
B-but inflation onii-chan
(◕﹏◕✿)
Inflation is just invented by fatcats to keep the worker down
I don't know about burger flippers, but as a CNA, I do think CNA's should make that much.
Okay, this is just insane that someone flipping burgers can make more than a CNA who had to go to school to gain their certification.
Yeah, I was paid 12$ an hour for physical labour lifting 60-80lbs metal blocks. So flipping burgers for 15$ an hour is totally justified.
If it's to the companies discretion. I don't support the minimum wage being raised to $15
The more they get paid, the less likely they are to spit on your burgers
It would make an European with a bachelors degree dream. But cost of living is higher in the US.
I've been a burger flipper. Years of it. At half that wage.
Is a lot here am i getting paid 3 bucks a hour making sure the bread in the supermarkt doesn't run out
Sort of. Yes they need to make a living but, I got my associates and ill get paid 12.00.
Yes, and other professions should be payed higher as well.
absolutely, the money comes from the corrupt corporations anyways
In NZ I get paid about $17.5 an hour working at maccas
No, higher wages mean higher prices which is blood from the veins of the consumer.
If your job doesn't pay you a livable wage with full time, then it's slavery.
Yes, everyone who is working full time should get a living wage
No I don't want my meal costing me $20 just for me! Can you say "Hello automation."? And no more highschool jobs.
It's okay, but that's how restaurants and chains keep their prices low.
Everyone should be paid 15 per hour or more. Regardless of what they do or don't do.
Get triggered conservacunts and capitalists and limited minded traditionalists
On behalf of all the other "conservacunts" . I don't care if you raise minimum wages as long as it doesn't result in shops closing because they can't afford to mantain employees. Then everybody loses.
Big chains and automation will eventually kill those smalls shops regardless.
True. But hurrying the process won't help anyone. Anyways, by raising salaries you give companies more excuses to have their factories ofshore where peopke work for literally nothing just to get a bit of food
Well I have more sympathy for the workers and less for the companies. So fuck them.
Tbh I'm more worried about companies invading our privacy. If they get there way banning free speech. Then we'll just be raised to voluntarily slave for them.
With higher pay comes higher cost. With higher cost comes less hours/ number of workers. The cost of living will go up. Fast food is not meant to be a career.
Stop buying things in the electronic cashiers, it's undermining everyone's job
Yes because American wages need to catch up with the inflation rates. Good god.
Fast food jobs are for students not a career to make a living
Everyone should be paid thr same wage regardless of job.
so you think a surgeon who has someone's life in their hands, teacher, police officer in a high crime areas and someone who works fast food should all be paid the same amount is bullshit. They require different amount of schooling and or training. by the way
If they work the same hours, then they deserve the same wage. Besides that's not even what wages are based on.
I’m down to be a professional burger flipper see ya in the olympics 😜✌🏻
If burger establishments weren't as common then it would be a problem
But there are millions daily eating at fast food restaurants so who cares
15$ hr means food prices go up and most people will be replaced with robots
No way. If you want to be paid well then you need to branch off into skilled work.
Yes of course. Why should I jot be ok with others getting money for hard work?
because I get paid like 7$ an hour for similar job so they have it good..
It will Ruin this Economy. xx
Please explain how it will ruin the economy
@Cammy137 how? Plenty of places have that minimum wage.
@StickStickity13 and did it ruin the economy?
@Cammy137 not at all
@StickStickity13 That's exactly my point. That's why I was asking Paris13 to explain why she believes it would ruin the economy.
A lot of factors at play...
Most people would just work instead of going to school then
with high cost of living in big cities, yes.
Heck, everyone should have 15 dollars an hour in order to be able to live alone and manage to pay all of the monthly bills and still be broke.

I guess, I worked at little ceasers for way less.
As long it stops more people being on welfare
It won't. Businesses will automate because it will be cheaper and those jobs will disappear. Many of those people are no skill, so they will end up on assistance.
Why not
They need to make a living as well
As long as the end cost to me doesn't go up, sure.
Not only okay, I support it.
Should i? Is it a lot or too much?
Why not? They have to make a living too
You do know if this is enforced businesses will fold. Places like McDonald’s will get kiosk
@Rissyanne I never said it was a perfect solution lol
Wouldn't that just drive up the prices?
Yes. Harder job than it looks.
lmao, not really
Yes really. Have you worked there?
I have. It's not hard, lol.
Then all you did was flip burgers.
Depends on were they live.
