In their push for an increase in the minimum wage, some politicians are taking a “minimum wage challenge.”
Among those taking the “challenge” is Rep. Jan Schakowsky, an Illinois Democrat, who shared this week’s “minimum wage” menu. How in the world can she be expected to exist on this?

Horrified? Neither were these people:
I honestly think @janschakowsky has no idea that 95% of Americans eat what's on her menu all the time.

What does @janschakowsky eat normally? Geebus.

@DLoesch did @janschakowsky get Michelle O's approval on that menu?

@RBPundit @janschakowsky that menu would constitute an upgrade for me.

@Neal_Dewing @janschakowsky I'm so sorry…are you really posting that menu as an example of some sort of deprivation? Bwahahahahaha!

@SooperMexican Low wages are a part of a healthy diet, apparently.

I'd be interested in seeing what @janschakowsky's non-crying about income inequality menu looks like for the week.

According to @janschakowsky, I've been living as if I'm in poverty this whole time. #LiveTheWage

Hopefully at some point the higher minimum wage advocate will try to #LiveTheWage of one of her unpaid interns:
Busted RT @baldingschemer: .@janschakowsky do you by chance have a menu for these guys too? #LiveTheWage pic.twitter.com/6XUqPjAIf6
