>Millions working full time jobs can't pay their bills anymore. Anymore? Real (inflation adjusted) wages are up for all income groups[1]. The lowest percentile

  America is not the only country in the World. Here in Montreal, minimum wage went up to around $15 an hour, in the same time a clean one bedroom apartment went from $600-800 to minimum $1500. I live alone and used to spend around $250 in groceries a month now it's around $600 and so on and so forth. And I am not at minimum wage. I can't even fathom how someone making $20 an hour manages to survive. We have a huge surge of homeless people, mostly because renting one room was about $150-200 now it's around $600 for a crappy one. People are struggling and the way you wrote that comment, you seem to have no idea as you are personally not yet a victim of the system. Just think about how much one is struggling to turn around and burn a whole warehouse and how normal people are reacting to it.
