They turned away over 938,000 meaning that over 1 million people applied for minimum wage jobs. Its real out here and not getting better anytime soon. The desperation in some of the pictures I saw at various McDonald's across the country was unbelievable.
wawaweewa touched on it but outsourcing has been terrible for this country and its only going to get worse.
Depends on the state. California has it best I believe.

Fast food places always hire a low % of applicants. I worked at a chain that would get 10-15 applicants a day, and we only hired 1-2 people a month.
I know people say it's easy to get a job at Mickey D's, but statistically it's not.

Joke's on the American people.
Why employ a couple thousand American workers that are educated and trained when you can outsource and pay foreign workers a fraction of that wage. Keeping American workers doesn't pay for the fuel on the private jet, or that bonus that will buy another vacation home.
On top of that let's get the American media to spread propaganda and blame immigrants for taking low paying jobs menial jobs on American soil, while we ship thousands of jobs overseas. They will be so pissed at immigrants (illegal and legal) that they wont even realize that we CEO's of corporate America are the one's eliminating good paying jobs in order to receive bigger bonuses. GENIUS!

It can vary by county and city too. For example in San Francisco minimum wage is $10.00, while most of the rest of CA is somewhere around $8.00 I believe.
We don't really have it best per se, minimum wage just reflects cost of living.

That same things happens with skilled professions (thing you went to school for)
Im licensed in Phlebotomy but have a hard time just getting my feet in the door
damn near all the employers wants a certain number of experience and its not even reasonable
like some want you to have at least five years in experience
and what I try to find out is how do any of these employers expect anybody fresh from school to have any type of experience when its never given
to you to begin with
you got at least one student graduating from a trade school every three months trying to do phlebotomy
and also many more students graduating college trying to do phlebotomy but there going to be damn near left in the cold
because they are no entry level positions
and they wonder why its no jobs out here all the employers just expect experience to fall in your lap
its even the same thing with temp agency's when it comes to this profession (but its not in there control honestly thats what there clients want)
even small health care clinics are shady
its a company called concentra its a small health care clinic that I had an interview with when I was fresh out of school (the school set me up)
and they turned down three new graduates saying that they felt we were not confident enough for there needs
about a week past and I found out the same people I had an interview with gave that position away to an extern (free worker)
so I basically said no hate on her but your telling me that somebody thats not even done with the course in more qualified then somebody
who is certified f$@# that they just did that because they saw somebody need the extern hours and in return they got the extra worker they
needed instead of hiring somebody and doing the same $#!@ that they were doing with the extern
and even the schools themselves dont help
got a career placement department for nothing only sent me on only one interview and its been damn near a year
and I passed every test for certification they can throw at me with flying colors $#!@ is ridiculous
