We're 100 miles or so from oil fields, but I don't see that mattering to high school kids that aren't in the oil fields anyways. Especially combined with the insane amount of welfare usage, 15 an hour goes far in my county. Maybe in 5 to 10 years oil will "get over here" and drive everything up. Hopefully I am gone by that point. It's always fun to pick out the gang tattoos standing in a long line at a gas station in an oil town.
We are all on the same side here, trying to better our lives....so let's get along and help each other out.
