24$ an hour is what you would get adjusted with the rate of inflation. This sounds much more reasonable and all these anti workers making less than that number would certainly work for that as the floor yea? My guess for why the minimum wage hasn't matched inflation:
1) Greed
2) Money
3) Power
4) Failure
That is all. Adjust minimum wage to inflation and let the people support the economy, not the fat cats. And fuck whoever says shit other wise. It doesn't matter if it “rAiSeS PrICes” because prices have already been raised time and fucking time again while the bar was dragged through shit and vommit. Tell them politiely to eat the biggest bag of shit ever.
