Ironically I'm good friends with a guy who does that and also a guy who went from being a jailed criminal to being a multimillionaire after starting a tow-truck company. Burger flipping jobs don't even require a 6th grade education level. Higher paying jobs are commensurate education, other factors, and ultimately reproducibility. McDonalds workers are so replaceable that the first machine level automation systems are replacing them (robots). And, that's only the first generation.


Jobs like that are great for high school kids to learn basic responsibility and work ethic. You're not supposed to stay at those jobs your whole life just like you're not supposed to stay in Junior High for a lifetime.


At some point these people need to learn personal responsibility. That's something you victims on the left haven't quite learned yet.
