Need more stigma

Now that fast food workers are in single-day strikes to get living wages, conservative media are doing what they do best -- mocking the poor. Ari Rabin-Havt of Media Matters has collected some of the things they're saying: You can be replaced with iPads. A higher wage only rewards mediocrity. If they got a higher wage workers would spend their days playing video games and having large families. There needs to be more stigma for the use of food stamps. And:

From an air conditioned studio in Rockefeller Center, the handsomely compensated Fox contributor asserted that a wage of $15 per hour earned spending countless hours on your feet without a break, in front of a hot stove, serving hundreds of customers, would be "cursing" those workers, ridding them of the impetus to "get better," "go to college," or "improve" their lot in life.

All this to reinforce a Power structure.
