Yes the paychecks stayed the same or Less because of Obamacare and if Companies cut your hours to three days or less a week they didn't have to offer healthcare.
So, many people's hours were cut and people hired (mostly illegals) at minimum wage to cover the other hours.

Then these idiots got the bright idea of a $15. and hour minimum wage, This is how our education system has failed us, They believed that they get Fifteen dollars and hour and get to keep they hours they were working,,,,, they believe that with this raise in pay their rent would stay the same, their car insurance wouldn't increase NOTHING would be affected but their larger pay check.
STUPID!
Let me ask this,,, you think that rent and other cost would not increase when you started to make more money,,,,,,,,Who was raised to believe they could raise a family, own a home and go on vacation and afford Healthcare at a Job working for Burger King, Taco bell and so on,,, How Ignorant.
