I never felt exploited when I worked fast food at 15 years old. I purchased my vehicles and had spending money. Would you rather our youth sit at home and play games? Do you complain now that this younger generation lacks the ambition to make a productive life for themselves? My 3 kids started working fast food and other menial jobs at 15 and learned nothing in life is free. Most of us had to start at the bottom and work up. As said before most now want to start at the top.
Most kids are happy(?) to have a job when they are 15 years old and don't understand exploitation. My kids worked fast food too and earned money but you missed the point which is McDonalds has record profits yet pays people $11/hr to start. We could argue that $11 is not bad to start but I can tell you $11 doesn't go far if the person is 1) not a teenager, 2) has a family and 3) trying to make ends meet on $11/hr. That is the person that will work two or 3 jobs to make ends meet. Heck there is a 70+ year old fella working the window at the McDonalds near us. I'm sure he is just happy to be making some extra income.
