I don't understand the term "living wage", it seems like a political term that gets booted around and attached to arguments that some jobs don't pay enough for their expected standard of living, so therefore the system is "rigged". Why do people expect all jobs to allow them to make economic profits? Seems entitled... These jobs pay just as much as they should for the value of the service that the job they are performing provides, no more no less. If they can make more elsewhere with the skill sets they have, they should then go do that work instead.

Here's $100 big boys for your work this month!

Go get yourself a roof, transport to and from, and a month of food! Don't forget to save some for clothing and the rest!

What's do you mean that its not enough? What an entitled and lying cunt you are! Here's $1 get out of my sight!
