Where the fuck am I gonna live on 39k? Pay a living wage
That's not one: https://livingwage.mit.edu/counties/24510
Have 0 kids and 39k is "only" 3.5k less than living wage.
In addition to this, poverty levels were set like 80 years ago based on the cost of food alone. They took an "average" grocery order, made up, and used a set percentage to extrapolate out. So say the recommendation is 30% of your income on food and then average spend was $100 ->100/0.3= $333.
So while the levels haven't been updated in a long time, simultaneously we've added whole sectors of the economy that weren't envisioned when this calculation was performed. Transportation and education are huge expenses that used to be much cheaper or nearly free. Add to that the fact that housing, transportation, education, and medical costs have skyrocketed above average inflation, and the poverty numbers are worse than meaningless.
Stop posting this embarrassing shit. Pick up a shovel and fill the fucking potholes that are destroying my car.
We currently have no backlog for pothole repairs. If you report the pothole using the 311 app, we'll send out a crew right away.
Lol "up to" 39k is ridiculous when "starting at" would still be too low
Wait, this is real? I kept waiting for the joke.
Let's hope they can fix the color arrangement of traffic lights
