> But to blame this on the workers is immoral, heartless, definitely a sign you have something wrong with yourself.

Yes, I am blaming the workers. Making personal attacks against me doesn't change the facts.

The fact is, the reason people make minimum wage is because they haven't developed (or proven to the right person that they have developed) marketable skills.

That's why it's important to study hard in school and to work hard in your job. People get paid what they are worth in the marketplace.

I don't know anything about DG's business practices, but if the workers are not satisfied, there are other places they can get a job.

I do realize that some people face inherent difficulties in life. They weren't born with the same advantages or they were born with disadvantages. Maybe they made some mistakes in life. I'm not saying they shouldn't have a chance. I'm saying that there are things (education, discipline, etc) that they can take advantage of to better their situation.

Maybe they are content in their situation. That's fine too.
