Making Ends Meat

The poor class in our society is pretty unfortuante. For starters, they work the jobs that the working, middle, and upper classess won't take, they get wages that the working, middle, and upper class could not live off of, and they live the life that the working, middle, and upper class don't want. So, take someone from the poor class. They work long hours day and night of a job that they don't like. Then, when they are finally done working they recieve a skimpy check that can barely pay the cost of living, and then on top of all of that, if anything else comes up that they need to pay for like a medical problem that requires doctors assistance with the life inssurance they don't have, they are set back weeks and need to start saving up even more just to get by. We watched an episode from the TV show 30 Days with Morgan Spurlock, the man from super size me, about living on minimum wage. He set out to live on minimum wage for 30 days with his fiance. It was really difficult for them and helps shape an understand for how unfortunate these people are and how well off we are.
