It was just a few years ago that my ex was working at a hospital cleaning up bodily fluids and shit (literal shit) in Indiana for $8.50 an hour.

His eyes lighting up at the thought of starting out at $16.50 at the airport in Chicago.
And now Walmart pays $16.

Republican heads are exploding. They're furious that people working at Walmart will be able to go home and turn the heat up above 50 and buy food.
