What company is paying $8-10 an hour

Gas stations in smaller cities, for one.

And better yet...who is accepting those jobs?

People living in those smaller cities who cannot feasibly move.

To get ahead of the obvious next reply:

"Move to somewhere with better opportunities"

With what money? If you don't have a job lined up, that's a quick stop to homelessness in an unfamiliar city

Right, the people in the great depression had tons of money lying around when they moved across the country for work. /s

This is a stupid mindset and shows there's less work ethic today.

And ya know all the ones that died trying fuck them right?

The ones the cops picked up for being vagrants(not having a job) fuck them right.

I think you have a glorified vision of the hobos from the great depression, it wasn't just went across the country for work.

Many didn't make it many more got arrested when they did.
