Are you aware there is more wealth inequality in wealthier states than poorer states? There’s no state in the US like Saudi Arabia. Wealthier states have a higher cost of living, making it more difficult to earn a livable wage, not less. That’s precisely why states set their own minimum wage, which is unfortunately below representative of the difference in cost of living.
As I said above, an ideal federal minimum wage is enough to live on in the state with the lowest cost of living. More than that will put more people in lower income states below the poverty line when the price of goods and services increase as a result of the higher payroll costs.

So how low is low enough for you? How exploited do you want to see everyone?

But if it never goes up, oh well. Not like it matters to you.
Willful ignorance gets no respect from me. Take your empty and actionless criticism elsewhere.
Baseless arrogance gets none from me.
