    Can’t tell if you’re joking or not. US federal minimum is still $7.25 but places like California and Connecticut have higher minimums in the $16+

      plus they are other country than US, each with different minimum wage. I ballparked it.

      the point being: whatever you buy, you sacrificied a lot of time for it (some more than other, obviously)

        My state voted for and passed a minimum wage raise, which would continue incrementally for the next few years, and paid sick time ballot initiative. The state legislature repealed the sick leave and removed the minimum wage increases from the future. Yay democracy. Cunts.
