That’s still a sad minimum wage. MIT clearly calculates a more realistic minimum wage for each state and county nationwide. Any place I’ve looked at in the past 5 years has been 20+ usually 20-26 but even saying that doesn’t matter. And lasted I looked into the calculations they were based on a no-life lifestyle, and no processed food.
Minimum wage is something no one should budge on. If inflation happens minimum wage adjusts.
Increasing min wage is great and all, but doesnt really solve the real problemn like landlord greed and corpations buying up real estate driving of living costs.

Yeah, I don’t understand why it’s a fixed number and not a formula…
I do: greed and corruption. It sucks but it’s the truth.

this is the way it works in australia and it works great! based on cpi though, so a more reliable “cost of living” metric
