Pt-3 Las Vegas and African Americans ( 2013 ) !

When I first got to Las Vegas I found out that in order to get a job out here you needed to invest about $200.00 dollars in getting all your cards. Health , Sheriff, Tam and a card that lets you work around alcohol, plus as of 2009, you need to have a OSHA 10 card to work on any construction site . If you are a felon you can forget about a job unless you no someone or willing to work day labor. Also, if you  are single there is no Welfare, G.A, or G.R check, you be lucky if you qualify for food stamps ? The thing is, this is a right to work state, so employee rights is very shaky, example many people tell me they do not get there second breaks. They are afraid to say something, because there employer can legally fire them with no reason !Also they are big on hiring and firing people before there 90 days, so they do not have to  pay for benefits. There biggest hustle is hiring people for a full time positions and then giving them 28 hours a week ! There minimum is now 8.25hr but in 2005 it was 5.15hr, so they continue to cry about that, if they had it there way we would be working for food? Listen I am pro-business as the next person, but paying a person a decent wage is the right thing to do for grounds of  humanity.The bottom line is, most people who have jobs do not have any money, the Bus drivers only make 11.00hr and they have to deal with drunks and thugs all day. So I thank the bus drivers because a lot of people need them and if it cost $5.00 a day to ride the bus, they should get a raise ! Las Vegas says that the cost of living is low is the reason they pay low wages, but the facts are it is cheaper to live in Arizona, Utah, Oregon, Washington and Colorado and four out five pay more then the minimum ! The number one rule out here is you better have a savings account or you will be one of the 14,000  thousand people who are homeless and that is a guarantee.!
