    And absolutely the barista at Starbucks doesn’t deserve the same pay as someone running the whole country.

    Everyone deserves a living wage. Except the pieces of shit who make sure that doesn’t happen. Lauren Boebert and Matt Gaetz may be your betters, deserving of greater wages for the work they don’t do. If you think you’re worth less than that ambulatory garbage, I absolutely agree.
