That and “teenagers need those entry-level jobs” (where in fact a great percentage of people in them are not teenagers).

To those people, why should it matter if teenagers get paid a livable wage? Some teenagers are trying to escape shitty home situations and need the money in order to become independent. Overall, there is this absolute paranoia in this country around not giving people things they don’t deserve, and I just don’t fucking understand it. Why is it such a terrible, horrible, awful thing if someone who doesn’t strictly need something benefits from a policy that gives it to someone who does? Is the $0.02 you paid on your taxes to make that happen really that important to you?
