That's why they work at McDonald's! What I don't like, is they just raised the minimum wage to $6.9something. Over paid and under educated/trained.

I see your point, but the problem is that there are people that are trying to live on that wage. There are "adults" who have graduated HS and gotten married at 18 or 19 and work at retail jobs and are trying to live, rent an apt, eat, drive a car, have car ins. Have you ever tried to do that on $7/hr? I think that's about $16-17k a year.
