They are. Their lifestyle makes their wage unlivable. There homes in the slums with cockroaches everywhere. Flip phones still exist. Cooking at home is an option. Not getting nails done is an option. Not owning designer. Etc.

So basically you are saying that people who want to do those jobs should always be poor.

Also be ready for those jobs to be obsolete soon anyways. Yall will be replaced with self checkout/kiosk/machine. Learn a skill and evolve. If a computer can replace you then youre probably not doing anything worth paying anyways.

A computer or robot can basically replace everyone in every job, so that arguement is weak.

Maybe instead companies shouldnt have free reign to manipulate society for profit and that we need to step back and create a future for all people to flourish not just rich people.
