Yay for ridiculous price increases without minimum wage increases then, right? People who have to look for a minimum wage job or have been working one for five years are getting the shaft because they're going further in debt when prices continually increase year after year with a minimal increase to their pay from corporate America. $.10-.20 hourly per year doesn't cover the mark up literally every item on store shelves get. |
Sucks to be an mediorce employee who doesn't make an impact on the business. Every person I've known who has worked at big box retail/fast food has gotten much larger raises (10-20x) in a year.
Also, outside of oil, what has had ridiculous price increases that were the result of inflation and not regulation.
