did you improve on the design or did you do some' new?

There's a debate going around right now, I have no idea if it's hot or not I'm not into pop culture, it's about McDonald's workers making 15 an hour. I'll come out and say this first they should absolutely get paid at least 12 dollars per hour without a shadow of a doubt. That's modern day slavery and they also have to work every major holiday. People make the argument"what are they doing for the world?" Well what is Derrick Rose, eminem, and Lupe fiasco doing for the world? All of whom are amongst my favorite celebrities. To me the answer is around the same as a McDonald's worker on a more global platform. We have no problem coughing up 50+ dollars to see them , read glimpse but we have a problem with giving a worker whose almost literally slaving for only enough to make a decent living. You would think people, especially those of us who are at the bottom would be more empathetic to these workers demands but no we'd rather judge them, treat them as insignificant. How dare they want to make a decent living while only flipping burgers. Well the next time your meal is less than satisfactory lets remember they are minimum wage workers they can only put in what they are getting out or something like that. We expect top product from someone who probably had to choose rent over food. Everyone is expendable at every job but these workers are treated the worst of the worst. They don't get sick days, no paid lunch, no real vacation time, and not a lot of free time. But oh well it matters not apparently life is about setting yourself up for success, not worrying about burger flippers. "its funny how are schools make us stupid and are schools jobs make us poor"
