The thing is that it's a low skilled job and it pays as such. People who argue to raise wages simply do not understand economics.

You guys act like if the guy working the drive through suddenly got $30/hr it would solve all of society's problems. You forget that other skilled jobs would go up proportionally as well and then his $30/hr raise is meaningless.

A wage is simply a number that represents what the job is worth.
