March 27, 2024, 12:55:24 pm Mark says: Shocked Shocked Shocked Shocked  When Hamas spokesman Abu Ubaida began a speech marking the 100th day of the war in Gaza, one confounding yet eye-opening proclamation escaped the headlines. Listing the motives for the Palestinian militant group's Oct. 7 massacre in Israel, he accused Jews of "bringing red cows" to the Holy Land.

September 24, 2017, 10:45:16 pm Psalm 51:17 says: The specific rule pertaining to the national anthem is found on pages A62-63 of the league rulebook. It states: “The National Anthem must be played prior to every NFL game, and all players must be on the sideline for the National Anthem. “During the National Anthem, players on the field and bench area should stand at attention, face the flag, hold helmets in their left hand, and refrain from talking. The home team should ensure that the American flag is in good condition. It should be pointed out to players and coaches that we continue to be judged by the public in this area of respect for the flag and our country. Failure to be on the field by the start of the National Anthem may result in discipline, such as fines, suspensions, and/or the forfeiture of draft choice(s) for violations of the above, including first offenses.”
September 20, 2017, 04:32:32 am Christian40 says: "The most popular Hepatitis B vaccine is nothing short of a witch’s brew including aluminum, formaldehyde, yeast, amino acids, and soy. Aluminum is a known neurotoxin that destroys cellular metabolism and function. Hundreds of studies link to the ravaging effects of aluminum. The other proteins and formaldehyde serve to activate the immune system and open up the blood-brain barrier. This is NOT a good thing."

So exactly what is a low paying job?  Well, the National Employment Law Project defines it as a job with an hourly wage between $7.69 and $13.83.  But of course you can't pay a mortgage or support a family on $13.83 an hour.  Even if you got full-time hours the entire year, you would make less than $28,000 on an annual basis.  The federal poverty level for a family of five is $27,010.

THAT is the most glaring fact in the article. Service industry type jobs are what they are refering to as far as new jobs. Virtually all of those type jobs are low wage, under $15.00/hr. Most I'd say under $12/hr.

You cannot afford the standard secular society lifestyle (i.e. house with a white picked fence, 2 kids and dog) on that wage, even for a single individual. With housing, vehicle, medical and dental, education, etc. There is no way a person can meet all those expenses. Not when your trying to live in a residence that costs at a very bare minum $500/month easy in the cheapest parts of the country for a small one bedroom apartment.

When calculating whether or not a person can afford a place, it generally is determined by approx. 25-30 percent of your gross monthly pay for rent or a mortgage. At $13.00/hr, that means you can only afford about $520/month rent. That's if you have no other expenses outside of household. Toss in full coverage auto insurance, medical of some type, food, and that income is gone.
