There’s gonna be a protest! Heads are gonna fly. Like Lord of the Flies fly.
Look, we know y’all might not be too into unions (assholes!) Some of our readers have expressed this to us in email form. But y’all gotta admit that $405 is not enough to live on (especially if you’re letting them take 10% “income” tax out of it. Puhleeze!)
We used to skip the protests ourselves, because we were working (read interviewing politicians, police and actors), but this time we’re gonna go, at least to document this lovely Depression 2.0 moment. Won’t you join us?

Thanks to our friends at the National Employment Law Project!

Strange how a single (or at least that’s what I gather from your other postings) person can’t make it on $405 a week while other people are expected to support actual families on less than that. I guess the single life in this city really is costly.
