$11 an hour, full-time, 0 benefits (Vent)

Small vent: I've been job hunting for months now. I have 3 years of experience in customer service and 3 in childcare. I'm also 3 years into a degree in elementary education (I'm taking a break to save money before student teaching).

I was talking to an older guy at my gym bout life, work, etc. I asked him, when will Americans finally have enough and revolt? He said, “The powers that be who run this country keep the waterline just below the nose. Once it goes over the nose, then you’ll see change.” When will it go over the nose?
