    What’s a little better though? They can improve their situation and then they’ll make more naturally. I’d rather see the solution come from that end. Why don’t high schools stop pushing overpriced college as the only valid option for students? Community college should be free for everyone. Let’s generate a more talented workforce. Maybe I’m too old but all of these burger joint and coffee shop jobs were never designed or intended to be one’s final career path.

      We agree for the most part. Unfortunately though, community college isn’t free for everyone. The people in these jobs should be allowed the flexibility to increase their employability through post secondary training without having to pick which night of the week they will skip eating to make rent.
