Accurate Map of State Minimum wage Across the United States

[White 6]

Unfortunately there are posters ( andaronjim ) on this forum who are misinformed and do not understand that minimum wage is different in each state across the country. The federal government sets a floor for a wage which is currently $7.25. This map shows the minimum wage of each state across the country. It is important to understand because each stat might have living conditions that are much higher than other states. The $13 minimum wage in California where even those making $20+ an hour cannot afford to live where they work, could fund raising a family in Kentucky, however the minimum wage here is $7.25, almost HALF of that in California. So please remember this when making your argument.

Back before minimum wage was determined by the Democrats, people were paid their worth. A burger flipper was paid $2,00 an hour because there were many burger flippers and it doesnt take a college degree to be one. Now lets look at a NFL quarterback, not too many of those around, but the really good ones are paid in the 10s of millions. Now for the really bad thing minimum wage does for people, those who are more qualified to be better, if the business owner is a liberal, will pay that person the minimum required and not the worth of the individual. Perfect example is Jeff Bezos, the liberal multibillionaire, the richest person on the planet, pays his employees no where near what he makes. Liberals, do as they say, not as they do....

You wanting to go back to $2.00 burger flippers? Nobody talking about paying burger flippers 10s of millions. Probably not going back to the 60s era though. Many on that side of the aisle are not looking to hold the line on any issue, but would rather try to turn back the clock, 50 years if they could. Used to be a conservative party, not head in the sand turn back the clock 2 generations, kind of party. I miss the conservatives.

Also back in the day, minimum wage was for the part time high schooler or college kid who needed a few bucks, or that elderly person who didnt want to be fully retired but wanted to mingle with other people. yeah, i was a minimum wage puke back in the day, but then after waking up and moving away from liberal victimhood, i got skills, skills fixing fighter jets that too me to Saudi Arabia. Was making $70,000 a year , tax free, free housing, gasoline was 25 cents a gallon, that was in 1991. You worthless fucks stay poor, stay victims, you deserve all the misery the liberals force upon you.

Obama's Policies Redefine Poverty

A new Heritage Foundation study reminds us that America’s “poor” maintain a standard of living much of the world would envy. Typically, “poor” Americans have more living space than the average European. Plus air conditioning, cable TV, and computer games. They are well-fed, and report they are not hungry.

Want to hear something really interesting.... I got to go to Egypt, there is real poverty, where people didnt have a house to live in, or free money given every month. They didnt have TV services for free, or free healthcare if the walk down the local medicaid facility. Our poor live like kings in this country.


Egyptian poor....

Guess i am one of those worthless fucks that decided to become a military officer. Nice to know what you think of everyone that didn't head over seas to get a decent wage. Glad it worked out for you. Now the Saudis are the worthless fucks as you call people.

Well technically we are still in the 50's. With inflation and people making $7.25 an hour, wages now compared to inflation is LESS compared to over 50 years ago.

I do not see anything happening on this before January and the new administration.

Dream on...

Keeping your head in the sand won't help. Did you notice the additional trump backed candidates that went down in flames Tuesday. He is not exactly Mr. Popularity even in Republican states. If he doesn't change, he willprobably lose you the Senate also. Aides are trying to get him to soften his rhetoric. May be working. I heard him say he would wear a mask in crowds today and looked good in it. Too little too late.

The actual minimum wage is $0.00

It's what you get if machines take over your job, or if your boss can now hire a person worth the extra money he has to spend to pay you to do a job YOU are not providing the worth for at the inflated salary.

$7.25 is an inflated salary?

Here in Nevada the fast food places pay around 10 bucks an hour for a starting wage. That's the only way they can get people to work for them. I can't think of a single place that actually pays as low as minimum. Warehouse jobs start at 17 per hour, anything requiring skill is around 20 per hour.

Most places that pay minimum wage are small businesses which affects smaller cities more than others. It is just ignorant however to think that all states have a minimum wage of $10 for ALL jobs. It is just not true.

Look at the job boards the states with a higher minimum wage pay minimum wage, the lower the minimum wage is the more people get ahead of the game

In Boise for example a dishwasher makes $10 an hour + $2.75 over state minimum wage


In Oregon they make $12 an hour right at the states new minimum wage

If you're an adult making minimum wage you need to sit down and figure out where you fucked up in life. I haven't made minimum wage since I was 16.

Not all people are able to learn skills and trades to make higher wages whether it be due to lack of learning skills, physical disabilities, etc. Up until 50 years ago, a person could work a minimum wage job 40 hours a week and be able to house, feed, and take care of their family without any type of federal assistance. There is ZERO chance that can happen today, and people like you have here, just assume everyone can do what you have done and get to the position in life you have. I'm not sure why it is so hard to understand not everyone is the same or in the same situation you are.

I am so glad I have not washed dishes for wage since 16. I couldn't make it on minimum, even though debt free and no kids living at home. Hard to relate to minimum wage.

So you were a military officer? In the army? Must be because it didnt take much for someone to join that Army of One. Why else would you vote for the very people who made the military feckless up to a rag head, camel jockey, navy? Huh? You must be so proud of the pussy president who had our sailors surrender to such shit fucks as the Iranians..Are you proud of Obammy for this ?

I think you are a fucking liar about your service, because you lie about everything else...

Unfortunately there are posters ( andaronjim ) on this forum who are misinformed and do not understand that minimum wage is different in each state across the country. The federal government sets a floor for a wage which is currently $7.25. This map shows the minimum wage of each state across the country. It is important to understand because each stat might have living conditions that are much higher than other states. The $13 minimum wage in California where even those making $20+ an hour cannot afford to live where they work, could fund raising a family in Kentucky, however the minimum wage here is $7.25, almost HALF of that in California. So please remember this when making your argument.

Back before minimum wage was determined by the Democrats, people were paid their worth. A burger flipper was paid $2,00 an hour because there were many burger flippers and it doesnt take a college degree to be one. Now lets look at a NFL quarterback, not too many of those around, but the really good ones are paid in the 10s of millions. Now for the really bad thing minimum wage does for people, those who are more qualified to be better, if the business owner is a liberal, will pay that person the minimum required and not the worth of the individual. Perfect example is Jeff Bezos, the liberal multibillionaire, the richest person on the planet, pays his employees no where near what he makes. Liberals, do as they say, not as they do....

You wanting to go back to $2.00 burger flippers? Nobody talking about paying burger flippers 10s of millions. Probably not going back to the 60s era though. Many on that side of the aisle are not looking to hold the line on any issue, but would rather try to turn back the clock, 50 years if they could. Used to be a conservative party, not head in the sand turn back the clock 2 generations, kind of party. I miss the conservatives.

Also back in the day, minimum wage was for the part time high schooler or college kid who needed a few bucks, or that elderly person who didnt want to be fully retired but wanted to mingle with other people. yeah, i was a minimum wage puke back in the day, but then after waking up and moving away from liberal victimhood, i got skills, skills fixing fighter jets that too me to Saudi Arabia. Was making $70,000 a year , tax free, free housing, gasoline was 25 cents a gallon, that was in 1991. You worthless fucks stay poor, stay victims, you deserve all the misery the liberals force upon you.

Obamanomics: Rich Get Richer, Everyone Else Poorer

When President Obama first ran in 2008, he claimed his economic policies would "foster economic growth from the bottom up and not just from the top down." He said he'd... Read More

Obama's Policies Redefine Poverty

A new Heritage Foundation study reminds us that America’s “poor” maintain a standard of living much of the world would envy. Typically, “poor” Americans have more living space than the average European. Plus air conditioning, cable TV, and computer games. They are well-fed, and report they are not hungry.

Want to hear something really interesting.... I got to go to Egypt, there is real poverty, where people didnt have a house to live in, or free money given every month. They didnt have TV services for free, or free healthcare if the walk down the local medicaid facility. Our poor live like kings in this country.


Egyptian poor....

Guess i am one of those worthless fucks that decided to become a military officer. Nice to know what you think of everyone that didn't head over seas to get a decent wage. Glad it worked out for you. Now the Saudis are the worthless fucks as you call people.

So you were a military officer? In the army? Must be because it didnt take much for someone to join that Army of One. Why else would you vote for the very people who made the military feckless up to a rag head, camel jockey, navy? Huh? You must be so proud of the pussy president who had our sailors surrender to such shit fucks as the Iranians..Are you proud of Obammy for this ?

I think you are a fucking liar about your service, because you lie about everything else...

Opinions vary. Yours means very little.

So you were fine with the US navy surrendering to a bunch of stinky Muzzies?

If you're an adult making minimum wage you need to sit down and figure out where you fucked up in life. I haven't made minimum wage since I was 16.

Not all people are able to learn skills and trades to make higher wages whether it be due to lack of learning skills, physical disabilities, etc. Up until 50 years ago, a person could work a minimum wage job 40 hours a week and be able to house, feed, and take care of their family without any type of federal assistance. There is ZERO chance that can happen today, and people like you have here, just assume everyone can do what you have done and get to the position in life you have. I'm not sure why it is so hard to understand not everyone is the same or in the same situation you are.

There are lots and lots of half assed excuses for being shiftless and lazy but at the end of the day they're still just shiftless, lazy and worthless regardless of color or consequences.

And obviously you haven't been to too many rural towns in this country.
