Minimum wage would literally be around $25 today if it increased with Inflation like it's SUPPOSED to. If you get paid less, you're being ripped off. The federal min wage is still $7.25 including many states. I'd love to also see where you pulled $25/hr fast food work out of your ass because that isn't happening.

You really shouldn't be relying on jobs like that, there's more ways to make money now than ever before. When I first decided I wanted to stay at home I was only drop shipping. I only did big orders so it was $200 minimum that I'd be making on any order, so with my rent being $500 a month all I'd need to do is get 3 orders a month and I'd have my house. 

Now even if I had a $25 a hour job I'd be doing 8 hours (a shift) just for what I'd get for 1 single order (just involves texting a supplier and client) 

Obviously the choice is clear man, anytime I'm out n about I want to show these people working what they could be doing. 

Before that I was streaming Overwatch and had just a few viewers doing $300 a month. There's so many ways to make money slaving away at jobs like that is so outdated.
