It has been made very clear that fast-food industries only offer minimum wage and if a grown adult cannot accept that before working there, then that's their loss. Of course I understand college is expensive, but if you work hard in school you are most likely to be offered scholarships and if money is saved up over time (even from a minimum wage job) it is attainable. Therefore, this protest is invalid.
