My daughter is in that category. After 10 years as a vet assistant she is well below the $18/hr. She’s almost ready to sit for the licensed vet tech test (nurse practitioner of the vet world). That still won’t get her to $18/hr. It’s truly disgusting. There’s no way to survive independently.

I certainly don't know what the solution is but don't think "no way." Some way there is a way.
