Or maybe we can stop with the idiotic outdated views that "bad" jobs should pay badly and blame the workers, which is exactly what the corporations want?

If fast food is a job meant for teenagers, who works there during school hours?

I don't understand how we got into this doublethink that a job's responsibilities can be necessary while still somehow being beneath allowing those who do it to live.

You're not going to convince a shitlib that they shouldn't punch people they think are their lessers. Getting to do that without criticism is why they became a shitlib.
