    Same thing applies to finances a lot as well “I don’t want a burger flipper making $15! I only make $16 and I’m a (other job)!”

    Like yes, but that means you’re both being underpaid. Them getting paid enough to live doesn’t mean you get paid less, if you feel your skill deserves more money, then fight for that money, don’t hold other people down to keep your frail sense of superiority alive.

      If the burger flipper makes $15 an hour then the price of a #10 value meal will go up to $14!!!

      Well, they didn’t get a raise and the price of a #10 is just about $14 🤷🏻‍♂️
