FDR's Original Vision for Minimum Wage

The image features two black-and-white photos of Franklin D. Roosevelt. The top section shows FDR with a speech bubble containing a fabricated quote about establishing a minimum wage for teens. The bottom section shows another photo of FDR with a contrasting quote about paying 'living wages' meaning 'more than a bare subsistence level.' The meme juxtaposes these to mock the idea that FDR supported teen minimum wage jobs.
