It's a fucking tragedy, that. Shit kept getting more expensive but salaries never really rose in relation to expenses... I had an office job in a smallish city for a private, family owned manufacturing country. They paid me near FAST FOOD WAGES for it. It was insulting, and the best raise I could get was $0.35/hr. They company made millions in sales, the owners are millionaires, the two sons of the owners (one of them, the GM, was the biggest fucking asshole in the company) are both millionaires. They said they wanted new blood, younger workers, and I bought it... They don't give a flying fuck about the future or anyone's future. I don't think they even care about the companies future because they won't even pay their "new blood" more than a fucking burger flipper.

Companies are seriously fucked up these days. And this wasn't even a publicly traded one. Capitalism works but I can see why some people are so pissed off. I am moving to a city where companies actually pay their employees.
