Minimum wage in America? The Dream?

 I was debating about talking about the minimum wage is America. In America as they say is the riches country which myself, I  wonder is it really? Or we must have a fat guy telling America how to spend there money and where and who can get it. 

  Sometimes I feel like we are just a big joke and America is going to pop. The money is going to run out. Maybe they are taking there time before it does. Just a theory.  

  So, some senators want to raise the minimum wage to 15 dollars a hour. which sounds so great but it won't reach that until 2025.  At this point, I'm pretty sure we will need more then that. Like, come on. Think about it for a second. If we are trying to survive to live and people have to rely on the government or family or even just try not to be homeless. something is going to happen. Renting for one person is nice but when it is 2 or more it can be difficult in better off states in America not the ones that are like. Okay we call them poor. There is not a balance throughout the states. California, a 3 bedroom coast 3,000 for a nice one or more.(Yes it can be2.400 and up)

  Either way it will coast in the rich states and in the poor states. When will it all be even? 

    Some company's here in America already gave there employee's 15 and 14 (just to make it feel like they are doing something) but only to people that work part-time it seems. Still having to work long hours and say no to things that you want or need still is in the air. (Talking about goods, itmes you need in your house or your wants.)

 Having kids in 2021 still sucks because you still worry about covic-19 and how are you are going to provide still. Without a college education is pretty hard for Americans but even harder for blacks. Just saying it like it is. 

  Now going to college can not be something you might want to do but more like you need to do. Wasting time can no longer be in are vocabulary. So, if we have a 15 dollar raise which is great but we need a 24 dollar raise just because prices are rising in food to clothing and other things we don't pay attention to. Renting a apartment that is a 3bedroom with one person paying for it, well let me tell you. I would have to work overtime plus full time of course. Work my ass off like usual Americans. Even pick up another job just to make ends meet.(Even when covic-19 is still out there)

  When you have kids and a single mother you kind of need to just do it. Not have to live somewhere that is not great for your kids. Give them the opportunity to become great. 

  That American Dream people talk about is just a lie now. There is no America  dream. You have rich and you have poor. If you know what that American dream is, please commit. Tell what it is. 

  As I struggle and make sure everything is paid and live with my parents as others are doing. Trying to relocate their lives. Where do we stand now? A job we have to take that is still a unsure thing. Unhappy with what it is, we do it. Then, there is making sure kids are good as school is online. no babysitter so you have to rethink your whole life.


Oh yes, this is the great America Dream!!! I think not.
