Upon inception it was set at $0.25. It is now $7.25.

    You can leave to any country that’s not adjacent to the US. I’m really not getting what point you’re trying to make with that statement?

    The rest is still valid, but this part is a bit of a moot point. Most countries are welcoming of sufficiently skilled immigrants as well - though the US education system with its ridiculous pricing might be a deterrent here.

      Practically no one making minimum wage is “sufficiently skilled” lol what a load of ridiculous privilege rofl

      “Just move to Europe” is like “just get a loan from your parents” level of out of touch

        Where exactly did I say Europe? Plenty of well paying jobs elsewhere. Lived in both Africa and Asia (still there, actually) for 2 decades and the money you can make there beats Europe by a wide margin. Educational requirements are low to nonexistent, depending on the region.

          And you managed to get even MORE out of touch.

          You can earn more money in Africa as an unskilled laborer than Europe? What a ridiculous statement.

      You have to have a bachelors degree to even be considered for citizenship in many countries. South Korea for example

        Which sucks, agree. Though I thought this thread was about regularly abled people, or did I miss something?
