14. No one should have to work two jobs just to survive.
How about people who just aren't sharp enough to handle a management position at fast food chain, and can't do anything else? Should they be an 80hr/week exploitable labor pool?

No one is saying that fry cooks should be making $200k/year. But if you're working 40 hours each week, you should be able to afford a monthly rent payment and food. I'm amazed to find anyone around here arguing otherwise, frankly.
