In 1993 when the minimum wage was 5.25 hr you could buy two packs of smokes and a coke for five bucks. Now its 20 bucks for the same items.

local truck drivers made about ten an hour in 1993. By this standard the minimum wage should be 21 hr and local delivery drivers should be making 42 an hour.

In the last 30 years this is how much money the profiteers have stolen from the average worker.

Its at the point that its pointless to even go get a job.
