To those who think a college education is the way out of working minimum wage jobs - “John Connelly thought he was on the right track in life. The son of a New Jersey auto mechanic, he was the first in his family to go to college when he enrolled in Rutgers in 2009,” Cruz said on the Senate floor. “Four years later, the 22-year-old found himself $21,000 in debt, without a permanent job and sleeping on friends’ couches in New Jersey and Brooklyn.” I know this was originally contained in a story about the new healthcare act. However I thought it spoke volumes to those who are against minimum wage workers seeking higher pay and think a college education is the be all, end all.
