Pull Yourself Up By Your Boot Straps
Transcript:
It's weird that we judge people who MAKE minimum wage, and not the people that PAY it. Whenever I hear about someone making minimum wage, it's always
They're lazy They're just flipping patties
But whenever I hear about a job PAYING minimum wage, it's always
They're doing the best they can They're job creators
Sure, but when you wanna talk about doing the bare minimum, shouldn't we talk about a job that is literally paying the bare minimum?
I mean, if this economic system works -- which eh -- then shouldn't the amount of money you pay incentivize the kind of work you get?
You might say, "No, you should work as hard as you can at every job you get."
So what you're saying is, you want a level of work that is inconsistent with the pay you are giving?
It sounds like you're saying you want a labor handout. And I thought we don't take kindly to handouts in this country brother
So if you're gonna use that kind of language, why not direct it at employers?
So the next time you get bad service at a place, instead of directing ALL your anger at the cashier,
you should get mad at the employer, who should pull themselves up by their bootstraps and pay more
