I think this may be true, but if an 18 year old is living on their own, they may need more money to be able to live off of, like $15 an hour instead of $12.

Yeah, so find a job that is paying more. There are well-paying jobs available; they just may be not as convenient or flexible, but they're there.

While I see where you're coming from, it's not always as simple as just finding a better-paying job. For example, someone may be working two jobs already just to make ends meet, and they simply don't have the time or energy to find and adjust to a new job - especially if it's less flexible. Plus, in many areas, higher paying jobs require qualifications that some people might not have and can't afford to get. What would be your solution to this problem?
