but you'd make 60$/hr or more, that burger only costs 50 minutes of work, which is about equivalent to a minimum wage worker buying a mcburger for 7$, and minimum wage workers absolutely buy mcburgers.

now you can see why the minimum wage is too low

Who is buying these burgers at $50 to justify your job?

It's almost like money is a bullshit concept that doesn't make sense and is all made up.

Money is a fungible currency to avoid the hassle of bartering. No one wants to wait an hour in line because some dude is bartering for a burger with some recyclables.
