Interesting arguments.
I'm just here to add: in the local town of 1500 people, starting pay at mcdonalds is $15.00. Yes, in an area with very low cost of living, burger flippers make 15 an hour.
They had trouble keeping it staffed. Not sure what about the west Texas demographics or situation make that an issue, but it is. I would have killed to make 15 an hour as a 16 year old.
But, they maintain staff at 15 an hour. They kept bumping it up until they could maintain employees, and 15 is what it took.

We are all on the same side here, trying to better our lives....so let's get along and help each other out.
Learn a trade. Gain technical skills. Make money, then use this money to get a degree...if you have the desire.
