Living in a minimum wage...
There are so many people and families in the world living in a minimum wage.
Question: "Minimum wage is enough to supply our basic needs?"
I wonder how they live and think of their tomorrow. Yes, it can provide food for the day. Just the food for the day! How about the other expenses such as clothings, house needs, etc. If ever they don't own a house, the rent. How much is it? Almost 30% of their monthly income. Yes, averagely anywhere in the world, the rent costs 30% of their monthly minimum wage. How about if they get sick? Consultations and medicines, how can they afford it? Yes again, we do have health centers and free medicines but there are some that only accepts around 20 patients a day. Also, around 50 patients visits the clinic and only 20 were being accepted?
They need to balance the expenses onl their necessities. Imagine these people eat bread the whole day. Some are noodles. Any food that is cheap and can sustain them. What nutrients can they have to be fit for their work? They might get sick and more expenses will be needed. If they're going to focus on their food, what about the other expenses? Having a healthy but cheap foods yeah that's the best thing. But for them it's not cheap! Having those foods are beyond their food allowance. Doing that will cause debts and uncertainty.
May they find and have their wishes come true. They are the silent heroes of the world. Working for the company, giving service but they don't receive service from the other. They are martyrs of the new world...
