"Today a minimum wage earner has to work a day and a half just to pay for a full tank of gas. That is simply shameful"
- Bill Pascrell
About this Quote
This quote by Bill Pascrell talks to the existing state of the economy and the battles of base pay earners. It highlights the reality that the cost of living is so high that a base pay earner has to work an entire day and a half simply to pay for a complete tank of gas. This is a stark suggestion of the inequality that exists in our society, and it is disgraceful that people who strive and put in long hours are still unable to make ends meet. It is a call to action for those in positions of power to take steps to guarantee that all people have access to a living wage and the resources they need to support themselves and their households.
