Even if you're dirt "holy shit how do I get food for today" poor there are numerous FREE government and PRIVATE programs designed to teach you IT
Learn IT, and you're making decent money. Great money, even, if you're lucky.
My issue with raising the "minimum" wage is that 15 dollars an hour is no more a living wage than 10 dollars an hour.
And in terms of illegal immigrants... maybe if they wanna come over here illegally, maybe they should work the shit jobs.
My grandfather had to work the shit jobs and he came here LEGALLY. He was spit on and beat up for being Irish. I can only imagine how annoyed immigrants who have to go through the legal process are at people who paid the Cartels a few hundred bucks to be smuggled in
