I feel like we should start putting our desired wages on our resume

I recently started a new job and before I even had my first interview I was writing down points on wages. Personally I have a wealth of experience and knowledge, I was in the Military and I have multiple operator certifications for different types of industrial equipment. I believe that qualifies me for over 20$/hr bare minimum. When I was asked in my interview what my expectations are when it comes to pay, I answered to the effect of north of my minimum. If I had put it on my resume at the top where my tombstone data is, “Cost of labour 20-30$/hr”, I wonder how effective of a negotiating tool that could be 🤔. Not only that, but it would also tell me how detail oriented the person is
