I just hate it that the response is to treat retail workers and people who work with the public as less than human. Ie) retail workers, resteraunt workers. I wish there was a way for us all to have wages where we can actually afford to live...

And a company that makes a 200Billion profit each year can afford to pay their workers more than 7.00 an hour...thats some bullshit right there!
Did some work with the homeless and we had to sit through a lecture as part of it. And at least in the D.C. area the minimum wage would have to start at at least $11 per hour for people to be able to live hand to mouth. Kinda sad.
