> Worse yet is that labor data shows that more and more adults are working in minimum wage jobs, so the talking point of "it's just summer jobs for teenagers" and "it's entry level work to move on from" is very out of touch with reality these days. There are millions of people trying to survive on these wage levels and without benefits and it is not working.
Then is it really true that productivity has increased? Millionaires and billionaires are not eating the food of millions of people or occupying hundreds of thousands of apartments and vehicles.
