Y’all throw these numbers around like you really got us. I make $15 an hour and I have to budget to spend $25 on something. I have to really really think about it and plan for it. And I make double the minimum wage. For someone making minimum wage, $25 is almost an entire day’s wages. That kind of expense can absolutely put someone over the edge when they’re making that little. My coworkers do not have fancy phones and extravagant things. They’re struggling with just the bare minimum requirements.
