While I can agree with this, I don't accept it as a reason to not go to school and make a better life for anyone. It can be done.
Those willing to work for minimum wage only deserve the minimum wage and nothing more. Still, my original complaint is that I don't like the idea of the government telling me how much I would have to pay someone should I hire employees.
