Watching "All In With Chris Hayes"

He interviewed a fast food worker, a woman who has worked at Papa John's for 15 years. She makes $8.50/hour. Un-effing-believable. So proud of all the workers who went on strike today. Chris' interview will open a lot of eyes. This woman was fantastic on air.

One major problem with this woman's plight is that it's probably literally that or nothing.

with the woman's plight and the plight of MOST of the lower wage sector of the working class. The only way to solve it is to institute shared hours AT FULL PAY until everybody that wants a job, has a job.
