Anyone who is making minimum wage needs to get a fucking clue and get a REAL job.

People also need to learn more about how to handle their money and read contracts. And education is always an issue and it needs to be more of a priority.
Any discussion with you in any thread takes a hundred different turns. You're only trying to change the subject here because you can't make a coherent argument.

Illegal immigrants have almost zero effect on wages especially compared to banning unionisation, outsourcing, offshoring etc.

Laws were put in place in the past to control predatory lending precisely because it's so easy for crooked lenders to fleece unknowledgeable people, but the current administration didn't enforce those laws and actually sided with the banks to prevent any investigations into their lending practices under those laws. If the country wasn't being run by a bunch of incompetent crooks there would have been no housing bubble and no resulting financial meltdown.
