Where do you stay while looking for a job in a place you can afford the rent after spending your money moving?A Call to Action
In New York City, over 150,000 children under five are poor. Last year, nearly 20,000 of these children slept in homeless shelters - enough to fill Madison Square Garden. From the moment they're born, children in poverty face an uphill struggle to survive, thrive and learn with so many odds stacked against them.
When will those in Washington agree? Its time raise the min. wage and its time to give hard working, decent folk wages they can live on. Wall street has had nothing but huge wind falls for the last 2 decades, including tax payer bailouts...when does the trickle down occur, Mr. GOP fuck head!!
You do know fuck head that New York state raised it's Minimum wage right?
You do know that, I used the NY story to highlight a national issue and you do know that states like NY and California have no choice but to raise wages when the cost of living is outrageous to began with? Oh and it needs raising again.....its 9 bucks an hour....like really?
Well no kidding it should be $20 bucks an hour in New York
.
When the average rent in a hell hole is around 3 grand, you tell me what 9 bucks will do?
If you can't pay the average rent, you should move somewhere where you can get a job and afford the rent. That's what normal, independent people have always done.
