Why are some fast food workers begging for $15 an hr when?

E1 privates, phlebotomists, and medical assistants don't even make that much. I'm 21 and I have worked fast food and I didn't beg for $15 an hr.

I have no idea. It makes no sense to me at all.

They can beg all they want to but the honest truth is nobody is ever going to make 15 bucks a hour at a fastfood restaurant they need to thnak god they have a job and stead of moaning be happy with the job they have

You're 21, not 40 with two kids to support and a retirement to plan for.

It's not that we think all jobs are *worth* a living wage, it's that we think everyone who works deserves to receive a living wage. Including all those other jobs you mentioned. Getting individual companies to pay more has been more successful than getting the government to just hand out money.

E1 Privates is a bad example. These people can't even tie their own combat boots.

I'm a medical assistant and i get paid more!

I just graduated from a phlebotomy program and I can't find a job without experience
and when i find a job i doubt theyll pay me $15 an hour

Because they come out of high school or community college and already have a couple of kids and expect that that starter job is going to pay for them and their kids. They should be trying other alternatives like: meeting and marrying someone, having their significant other pay child support, get assistance from the government, or getting loans and continuing on to getting a career.
