But she would blow that easily in additional transportation costs. Moreover, what happens to her kid during those six hours? Oh, and by the way jackass, even if this woman took the $567 shortfall out of the rent, she would only have $1,033 for rent. Good luck finding ANY place in CA for that rent.

He's also the same type of person who has exploited the land speculation racket to artificially raise the cost of rent and owning property in the Southern California. Unfortunately $1600 for a one bedroom in Southern California is slightly below average of $2000. It's practically robbery how these rich people have rigged the real estate and property market in California.

I'm not stating an opinion, just felt like many factors weren't addressed in the video and would like to know more. So what is this company's profit? (As in amount of money left often after all expenses), how many employees work in unlivable wages? Cause if this is a massive firm and has 20,000+ employees with these wages, and they all of a sudden have to pay all those employwes 6,000 dollars more a year for livable wages, would this company still be making any profit? Aka spending 120,000,000 more dollars every single year. Also what level of education or experience requirements are needed for this job? If the experience requirement is nothing, then they are already making leaps and bounds more than other similar low experience jobs such as fast food workers. Also does this company provide options to work overtime, or extend the amount of hours a week to let's say 50 (2 extra hours a day)? As this would provide an additional 640 a month. The only opinion I wish to state here is that I believe that the amount paid should be equal to both the experience needed to obtain the position and the difficulty/hours a position has, not necessarily 'livable' wage. As if this was the case no one would attempt to go master a craft if you'd make the same amount doing a career that requires no experience and is generally an easier job. Now I don't know any of the specifics of this company's situation nor the employees - but I am not one to blindly believe things without the full story. If anyone is willing to inform me of the specifics off this companies budgeting and whether or not it can both financially sustain all it's employees living in unlovable wages, inform me of whether the employee deserves the increased pay (college education, years of experience in field, difficulty of job, trade school, etc etc.) I will back this 100%.

Never seen this woman, never heard of her, and i dont know what was this about... But she is a LEGEND! We need more people like this to put people like him in there place! God bless her.

Additionally even if there was a partner to this illustratory person- and widowed women do exist so there's ways a woman could be raising a child alone that wouldn't upset any of your restrictions- she isn't entitled, because this isn't about welfare but instead about a job that requires full hours but still doesn't pay enough to live on. It's not entitlement if you are working for it. Additionally multi room apartments require more financial power to be able to afford rent between roommates and pay the larger initial deposit which many in this sort of situation can't afford. The big question is, why is a company paying their CEO the value of a small city every month while not paying full time employees who keep the company running enough to live off of their wages? Companies not paying workers suitable wages just means those companies are forcing wellfare to subsidize their costs of business, which means this company is being a lazy mooch economically speaking.

You know what happens when those services aren't provided by the state, you suddenly find that your roads are privatised and you need to pay to use them. Your paths and sidewalks disappear, and you can't walk to the shop, as there is no sidewalk, and the road is private property, you have no rights to be there. Your rubbish doesn't get collected, you need to pay someone to take it away. You only get emergency services cover if you pay for it privately (this is how fire cover worked 100 years ago, they would just let your house burn (maybe looting it first, police weren't going to stop them)). Basically this is what we had 100+ years ago, just worse. So pay your fking taxes and stop moaning about all the stuff you get for a fraction of the price you'd get it for from private companies.

@@EnteiFire4 the US likes to say it's the best place to live in the world. I am a near minimum wage worker in the UK (the example woman in this story is NOT minimum wage), I'll do a similar case study (converting my income/expenses into USD). Current exchange rate is £1 to $1.38. Hourly rate $12.70, I work a 42hr week. So $27736.80 a year. Tax, pension and student debt is roughly 30% of my income, $19415, $1618 a month. Rent (my old rent, my mortgage is way lower), $780 (3 bedroom house, lower income area north of the country). Utilities $250 (includes phone, tv, internet, water, gas, electric, insurance (both life and property), and tax). Transport $200 (rough estimate, its probably less actually). Leaves $388 for food, luxuries and clothing. Food is roughly if I eat well, $250-300 (that's for 2 people) I don't have childcare costs, but it I was a single parent I would qualify for significant benefits that would cover them entirely and possibly leave some money left over. There would also be income from the childs other parent. And I earn significantly less than this woman, pay far more tax, have a pension, am fully insured, have full medical cover. Yeah the US seems great. Oh and if I had a job equivalent as hers with $16/hr (cutting my work week down to 37.5hrs instead as thats the standard in her industry) I would have roughly $590 a month for food and luxuries, and still qualify for the child support benefits. Frankly the US get screwed by insanely high rents. The only places in the UK with similar levels of rent are in London itself, and they are countered by far higher average incomes.

This woman is a freaking verbal powerhouse. I have never seen a member of Congress who doesn't get into those ridiculous platitudes and instead uses her time for asking serious and easily understood complex questions. She is one person who I would not want crawling up my nose.

@@markarmage3776 How about this: workers should be compensated for the wealth they generate, rather than the wealth they generate in our economy being funneled to a few rich parasites who set the rules. If minimum wage jobs are worthless, why do companies rely on worthless jobs? No fast food chain exists without the base employees. How about people who work full-time jobs get paid enough to afford to keep working that job? You're incredibly naive to think that all people in minimum wage jobs can just get a better job, there will always be a minimum wage; if companies are permitted to pay non-living wages, we taxpayers give the morally bankrupt employers handouts, by supporting their underpaid workers through social security.

While I appreciate the argument she is going after the wrong guy. Say there are 2 people working this position per bank, and 5 banks per state on average,50 states, If they're all short $567 a month that becomes roughly 3.4 million dollars while the bank should have no problem paying this imagine every company in the country having to sacrifice 10% of their income, the big companies will be fine but the little guys will have a much tougher time. What we should be asking is why renting a 1 bedroom apartment is aloud to be $1600 a month or a why a diet of Raman noodles costs $400 dollars a month. You can raise the minimum wage all you want companies will just keep adjusting their prices to keep their profit the same. The only thing that changes is now more people live near that poverty line.

​@@konkon4754 I know that this will likely fall on deaf ears but I thought I'd make a slight effort none the less. The TL;DR: is that even if Patricia the Teller had no taxes to pay she would still be short $69.50 every month. Patricia's current budget, as shown by Rep Porter, comes up to $2,992 each month, and I think we can both agree that it lacks several very important things. She would have to earn $35,904 each year (2,992 x 12 = 35,904) to actually meet the budget shown. Patricia's yearly earnings of $35,070 before taxes means she'd need another $834 each year to not be in the red. Arguing whether the government is corrupt or not actually does nothing here. Patricia wouldn't earn enough money even if the government didn't "steal" the $5,970 through taxes each year (and I'd argue that it isn't theft, or at least not wholesale theft, as taxes go to some very important things). The answer here is not to decrease or remove taxes. The answer here is to give Patricia, and all people in a similar situation, an actually liveable wage. We don't have to be partisan, we don't need to discuss whether taxes should be a thing or not (in my opinion at least a majority of the money paid in taxes goes to some very important things), and we don't even have to get into whether or not the cost of living would increase or decrease for Patricia if people didn't have to pay taxes (I definitely think they would, but as I said, not a thing we need to discuss). Patricia simply does not have a high enough wage to make ends meet, even if she could get away with paying no taxes at all. And I think we can both agree that she should be able to afford both getting her kid lunch AND to save money each month for the inevitable medical care that they will need, in addition to the budget Rep Porter presented. Hope that gave you some constructive things to think about and have a good day!

We need many more representatives like her. Straight forward, well versed and gets to the point quickly.

I don't understand why people have a problem with this.. take the child out of the equation and the child support (she's not getting), and even the fact that they're in California... She still can't afford to live off of that. I've been in the same position with no kids, no student loans, no car payment, and I live in Florida, and I had $50 every two weeks to live off of. Just me by myself in a one bedroom apt with a college degree working 40 hrs a week. The point is minimum wage is supposed to cover the basic cost of living and it doesn't. I could barely afford the basics making twice as much of minimum wage is in Florida. And I didn't qualify for low income housing because I make too much, and if I did that would be one more person in the welfare system when that benefit should be going to other more people who can't work. My rent goes up $80 a year but my pay only goes up $0.15...do the math. Im losing money the longer I stay at the same company and same apartment. Minimum wage has gone up $1.00 is my state in the past decade.. do you honestly think that is proportionate to the cost of living? Idk why peoplewould be against everyone in this country finally making what they deserve... including themselves. If you think big companies are appropriately budgeting money for everyone's interest and not just the people at the top, you're delusional. They have the funds, they're stealing every bit they can, and people are justifying it (while struggling) instead of fighting for what's right

No, big companies are definitely not budgeting finances accordingly. I met a guy who works at Amazon. He makes just a little over $12 per hour doing package deliveries. He’s been at amazon for 2 years and he’s now a supervisor of the local warehouse. He can barely make a living with his income, but he gets by. A friend of mine from college just graduated and started an entry level job at Amazon. He makes a whopping $75 per hour excluding stocks and compensation bonuses as a software engineer. He parties every weekend, buys expensive clothes, and travels around the world in his spare time. Of course the companies are going to look for their own interests first and foremost, but that doesn’t mean you cannot make a decent a luxurious income even as a fresh college graduate. However, if you don’t teach yourself valuable skills or do work that is of significant value to the company, don’t be surprised if you can’t afford a high speed internet and have to share your bedroom with someone else. With minimum wage, you CAN make enough to survive and get by, but it’s not going to give you a decent quality of life, and you can’t complain if you don’t bring any valuable skills to the table.

I used to work for $10 an hour in the US. That lady is rich at $16

What this lady does not mention is that there is government assistance for most of the costs listed. I have lived off less and it wasn't fun, but I did it. The stress of not having enough is also a great motivator for improving your skill set and progressing in your career. While I'm sure banks and other big companies could benefit from caring more about the welfare of their employees, we can't exactly expect low skilled jobs to pay enough to support a family at 40 hours a week.

Yes we most certainly can! Take into consideration the average CEO makes about 8-10 million a year, while the standard of living at its highest doesn't change after 150k a year (meaning you can afford to live in the best houses, drive the best cars and eat at the best restaurants). So even if said CEO had the skillset of God being able to raise planets from a sneeze, does it make sense that he takes home 850k more than he/she actually needs while his employees can barely pay rent and feed their families in spite of working fulltime job? The only reason there is government assistance is because companies like these do not pick up the slack in an inflated economy. If not citizens would start dropping like flies or resort to crime to make ends meet thereby inversely affecting the countries GDP. The fact that the government has to step in and set a minimum wage is counterproductive because of the ripple effect it creates and eventually raises prices again. But if they don't, then CEOs like these would still be paying a dollar fifty an hour and employees like you would gladly accept it, turning to the government for assistance

@@sohanpereira2984 If the CEO donated his entire salary of 8 million and gave it to all his 60,000 employees, that would amout to a $133.00 per year raise. Also, how are you planning on limiting every CEOs salary to 150k per year? By law? Who wants to live in a society that controls its citizens to such an extent? What would be the incentive to innovate and take on all the responsibility of running a huge company if you can never make past a certain amount? People are not that altruistic. The rich would just flee to places with better prospects like what has happened in Venezuela. Companies would not pay 1.50 per hour because nobody would work there for that wage. We already know that because most companies pay above the minimum wage already without any law or regulation requiring them to do so. Wages are based on supply and demand, not minimum wage. Call a plumber and ask him to fix your sewer pipe for 20$ and see what he tells you.

Maybe instead of looking for wage increases, they could try to lower the cost of living. Politicians never want to address the root cause of issues. The cost of a cheap apartment should not be that high. Apartments in Louisiana where I live cost HALF that. What can be done to lower base monthly rent costs?

There are many, many factors that have made the cost of living so high. You can spend the next hundred years sorting all that out and doing nothing in the short term, or you can do that _and_ question why CEOs get paid these massively oversized salaries that they're literally leeching off of their hardworking employees.

Two numbers stood out to me: - apartment cost of $1600 a month for bare minimum. - Paying $6k in taxes for an income of $35k when you ARE A SINGLE PARENT WITH A CHILD Those problems should be much easier to fix than getting companies everywhere to adjust their pay scales for every employee.

The problem isn’t with the bank. The problem is her life choices (single mother with child), location (1br apt for $1600), and choice of job (that’s what a bank teller pays). The bank is in no way forcing her to work there. She agreed to the terms and salary voluntarily.

I'm not defending bankers, but this financial model makes a lot of assumptions.

There are also a lot of assumptions it misses. Like this person ever spending money on any kind of quality of life beyond struggling to make ends meet. Wages need to rise and greedy slimey corporate snakes like him sucking billions out of the economy to stuff in his fat bank account even though he already has everything money could buy him should be the ones who give up some wages to allow it to happen. Most of the employees he pays peanuts to make his money for him probably work harder than him on top of it. People like him are the biggest problem this world faces.

I might be wrong, but who's claiming that a job that pays $16.50 an hour is supposed to support the life of a single mother and her child and all their expenses? The reason for the "low" (depending on how you'd see) pay isn't because there are tyrannical bankers wishing to make life more difficult for their employees. The reason for that pay is based solely on required competence, competitiveness, and task difficulty. This is very similar to the controversy around UBER; Why aren't they paying their drivers more than what they already earn? Well, first of all, it was never intended nor is, to be a full-time job for anyone. It's a "gig job", short-term employment for anyone with a car who's willing to share a ride with someone in need. It's NOT a 9-5 hour job.
