> But I don't think there was ever a time when unskilled retail workers and delivery men got paid well. Minimum wage jobs have always been basically survival level pay as long as I've been alive. The thing is that survival part has become a larger problem now even for people who have a full time jobs or two. Many live in their cars. When has that been the case historically to have such high housing costs? Has life been so hard for so many excluding during the great depression? Are we under one at the moment? It certainly looks like for more and more and I not only not see anything improving, I see things getting worse. Of course the winners don’t see it the same way and like to tell eachother stories
