You do realize that minimum wage is like $7.25 an hour, and literally millions of people would love to only be as miserable as Mach69?
And even that $7.25 an hour minimum wage is going up to $17.64 an hour in West Hollywood, California. My understanding is automation is coming to fast food. Flipping burgers does not have enough value added. So, there will be a lot of minimally skilled people unemployed at that pay rate.
