    I don’t think anyone says that the DQ person needs to be able to afford a standard of living that’s luxurious, but what they’re saying is that everyone needs to be able to afford basic necessities (shelter, food, healthcare, education etc.).

      I absolutely want the DQ person to have a luxurious standard of living. I want them to be flashing Rolex when I walk in. Otherwise what’s the fucking point of all this modern society shit we’ve built?

          By implying that fast food workers shouldn’t be payed a livable wage; it’s admitting you are ok with exploiting disadvantaged groups, whether that’s teenagers, low-iq adults, or otherwise desperate people. Cheap fast food is a luxury, not a requirement for a healthy society.

        I always liked this song for that reason

        Nobody living savage errbody got change, even the paper boy deliver out the back of a Range

        Some people have 5 homes and some have none, that’s decidedly not Nellyville
