    Minimum wage means if they could get away with paying you less they would, but if it weren’t for those pesky laws. But let’s be real here, they already get away with huge amounts of wage theft, especially for minimum wage workers. The minimum was always meant to be the minimum amount needed to live. It’s just corporations/oligarchs wanted the masses more desperate because they are easier to exploit. Oh there’s middle class, and lower class and upper class. Those are “UnSkIlLeD” labor jobs, they don’t deserve a living wage. It’s always been a war against the working class and they have us fighting with ourselves over this shit. NWBTCW
