In interviews with the Washington Post, multiple farmers expressed their dismay with the loss of farm workers under Donald Trump's harsh immigration policies and his administration's waffling on subsidies.In a deep dive focusing on one farmer who voted for Trump, 36-year-old J.J.

7.25 to be exact at the federal level. Some states set it higher though
But to be pedantic, being a slave has nothing to do with wage. Being a volunteer isn’t slavery.
Slavery is about consent.
Do you have a choice when you starve or work for what you can get? This isn’t rocket science.
Or I could pan handle. Or go to one of many homeless shelters/kitchens in my city. A couple options there.
And on what planet would you not expect someone to work for food?
Is pan handling legal?
Didja know there’s often waiting lists for shelters? Didja know that food banks usually require proof of residency? (Good luck cooking that bag of beans if you are unsheltered. Milk might have a few chunks in it too.)
Hmm, I wonder if you have absolutely no idea what you are talking about.
They’re options. I didn’t say they were good options, just that they were there.
The best way forward is to find a decent job that pays a living wage. Get your CDL or something, it’s really not that hard.
Epilepsy.
I had a job that paid a living wage, they just made it illegal for trannies to have it 🙃
You can learn to code. You could become a plumber or an electrician or carpenter. You could be a teacher or a mechanic or a government worker.
There’s so many things, I could sit here and list them all day, just pick one. I’m not saying they’ll be fun jobs, but that’s why they pay you.
Just stop with the victim complex and figure shit out.
I was a teacher. That’s illegal for trannies now where I live.
Yeah, we all know that there are so many government jobs right now.
I’m sorry you don’t live in a shithole where you can be fired for being who you are. Maybe fuck off with the condescension and unsolicited advice. Maybe you could learn to be an empathetic human being - I figured it out far before I learned to code, but we all grow in different ways.
Then move or find a different career. I don’t know what to tell you, except that defining yourself as a victim won’t help anything.
$7.25/hour is not a “living wage” regardless. It’s slavery, with extra steps
You can go to a place with better wages. Like many gas stations.
And living wage heavily depends on location.
What’s your wage? I bet it’s not $7 an hour.
No no, I did about six months of construction work out of high school, got my shit together and now I make a good wage. It might be harder for some people than others, but it’s still possible.
No it isn’t if you’re a minority of any kind in some places. Someone who landed on 2nd base telling everyone to become a professional player and hit a home run. I know you’re trolling, but hopefully this gives people something to read if they’re banned from the game.
Bootstraps, ammiright
You know what, if you want to be a loser and a bum, go ahead. You’re only fucking up your own life.
Dont you have a conservative comm to huff paint in?
