If you work for a living, then you probably have discussed the cost of living in recent years. It’s a hot topic and one that is hotly debated on social media as well as on the news.
Jesse Watters is a Fox News host who talked about the cost of living and he made a comment that has the Internet talking. It happened on a PBD podcast while he was promoting his new book.
He spoke about people who were working in the fast food industry and in particular, was discussing the wages. That is when he said: “If you’re making $20 an hour to work in a fast-food restaurant, is that six figures?” And people were wondering why he couldn’t do the math.
If you think the $20 an hour is a six-figure salary, then you really are out of touch with reality. The person who was interviewing, Patrick Betz-David came back and said: “No, no, $40,000 a year.”
Waters then said: “So, if your husband or wife is also there, you’re making $100,000 as a family. Both working at McDonald’s.”
