Look for yourself 2 working adults 2 kids - is $15/hr a "living wage?"
No one tell old man Bernard China is leaps and bounds ahead of on climate.
Oh and the genocide....simple "disagrements". Dude can't mention genocide.
I live in bum fucking nowhere
One person trying to live off of 15 an hour here? You cannot.
Two adults living together making a combined 30? Doable with no kids and no extra expenses (better not have health issues, or car problems, or any dreams or aspirations beyond living with bare minimums)
I'm also in Bumfuck, though a bit closer to civilization and even $30/hr isn't enough. Rent has gone up 200% in the past 6 years and food has gone up almost 300%
Of my $1000/wk 90% goes to just paying bills, food, and rent.
