At 16K.... per year. Would that buy a family health care and
retirement?

In India, you would live like king on $16k/year.

1/2 of south America would die for that.

Have to start somewhere. Beats nothing.

And if smart, work up to assistant manager or something, put in some
time to show your a winner...then jump to a job with a better future.

Problem is this new generation and union entitlement types all thought a
loaded rate of $80/hr with gobs of time off would be there for G12 flunkies.

You haven't got a clue about how many people are needed to supply
McDonald's with food and paper products on a daily basis.

The cows and chickens don't just walk in off the street and jump on the
grill.

16,000.00 is less than 1,600.00 in 1970 dollars. Perhaps even half that. imo
We spent over 350.00 for fuel these past two weeks for trips to Doctors,
groceries and local errands.
we are in fly over country or the majority of America.
The holy mantra, of Wall Street and other Economies for so looong was
that the American dollar's value was too high or that we needed to cut
the value of the dollar to encourage trade or the Globalist Wall
Street's bottom line etc.
our Republic and Economy has been assaulted and raped.
Washington/Wall Street continues to finesse the rape to enlarge their
coffers and keep Keynesians in new thrones and yachts.
America is a fire sale to the rest of the world now thanks to their success.

The price of gas is killing everybody I know. I hang with real middle
class folks and we can't afford an extra couple hundred a week for gas
and groceries, oil, etc... We were fine when George Bush was president,
actually, more to the point, before Nancy Pelosi took over the House...

It's just as bad up here. The difference is we have fear-mongering
price speculators. The news announced that Gas was going to rise 3.8
cents per litre the other day. It's funny how they KNEW this, and
created a fear wave at the pumps. People jammed the stations , trying
to " beat the hike ". What utter ****.

I think I'll hit an armoured car, just for fun.

Let an armored car hit you. That would be funner.

again.

Huh??
During Dubya's reign, our self service regular gasoline reached $1.49 per
liter compared to $1.33 at the present time.
I believe this was in 2007.
