    It already realistically needs to be between 25-30 an hr to even be considered a living wage.

      Then we make two wages, one we call minimum, the other we call living. That way it’s easy to know if a place is offering a living wage or if it’s just unimportant work.

        lol right now we do have two wages. The minimum wage… and the subminimum wage. Yes, that is a real thing! 2.13$ an hour if you make more than 30$ in tips a month.

        That way we can tell the difference between the morlocks and the eloi.
