1. You’re being deliberately horrible to other people. Stop.

2. If you are a parent, you probably need a couple of bedrooms so you and your children have a place to sleep. Or maybe you aren’t a parent, you’re living with a partner or a friend or a relative who is unable to work. Same thing, you need space to sleep and call your own. Not cramming everyone into one bedroom or making someone take the couch every night isn’t really a luxury.

3. The whole idea of the minimum wage when it was first implemented was that it would be enough to support a family on one person’s wages. Food, shelter, medicine, et cetera. And now, one person’s wages can’t even cover housing for the family *anywhere in the country* let alone food or medicine or anything else.

This isn’t trivial — this means tons of people are homeless and hungry and sick. This means that they labor as long and as hard (or usually longer and harder) as everyone else and they still can’t afford a warm place for their family to sleep.

I don’t think it is at all a stretch to say that people working for minimum wage are being robbed, and that that robbery has real and violent effects on laborers and their loved ones.

A tax on married people. What the superfuck?

The Boko Haram massacres that the media isn’t talking about.

They’re burning men to a crisp, raping dozens of women before putting bullets in them, strapping explosives to children and forcing them into busy town squares…
