I actually thought it was slightly less at $25k.

Wal-Mart, the biggest employer outside of the government pays sub-$10 an hour...

Wal-Mart employs 2 million people...probably 1-1.5 million are retail workers who no job stability and have less than 5 years experience. You can't even work your way up to $10+ an hour because you get fired or laid off...

Multiple this logic to the thousands of retailers across the country.

27k a year is only $13 an hour.

When I graduated college in 2007...first gig I got paid me $10.22 an hour. Second job I got paid me $8.00 an hour.

Does this include the tens of millions of teenagers and students working 15-20 hours a week making minimum wage?

Did anybody mention that?

Something I always found funny when people talked about going to school to get a good job.If you can read a tape measure and do basic math and pass a drug test you can walk into a temp agency and start off at about 11 dollars a hour.

Why do you think men like this scare governments to death?



They want us all in the gutters fighting over the scraps. Our governments encourage racial and social divisions to stop people realising who the real enemy is.

The top 1% since 2007 has had a larger share of total income than at any time since 1928.

The 413 American billionaires own more than 50% of the net wealth of the United States.

Think about this for a second brehs. you could put those 413 people in a room and that room is collectively richer than the 314 MILLION other americans

:wow:

But when your hired in it goes up to about 13/14 dollars then with raises and about 4 years later your up 18/19/20 dollars. No school to pay back and you got a gang of experience. But I know on the coli that ain't shyt.
Make up your mind fam..we talking bout 11,14 or 20/hr?
My point stands,11/hr is not good money...ppl dont go to college to start off with that kinda pay.
I know how temp agencies work breh..folk dont go from 11 to 20$ in 4 years
Hell most temp agencies keep eatin off muthafukkas for years before the company hires them in

If college aint your thing,go the vocational training route
Cnc,welding,electrician,quality control etc..get some certs and you will be straight
Unskilled workers are expendable..
