Toddsterpatriot, I'm aware of some ignorant people who equate the term lower wage with only the minimum wage. I have a higher regard for your intelligence and knowledge.my state, you can earn as little as $7.25 which is a loss of about FORTY PERCENT below the minimum wage workers once made!... In my state, you can earn as little as $7.25 which is a loss of about FORTY PERCENT below the minimum wage workers once made! And all pay is calculated accordingly. The lower the minimum wage the less they can justify paying everyone else. ...
... Now you know why the days of your father working and he'd be damned if his wife was going to work are gone to now where nearly every couple both members must hold down jobs just to break even.
Two years ago, less than 0.7% of hourly workers made minimum wage.
And all pay is calculated accordingly.
Baloney.

We buy much bigger houses now and spend more on almost everything.
All lower-wage rates are not precisely the minimum wage rate of $7.25 per hour. When you posted “Two years ago, less than 0.7% of hourly workers made minimum wage”, you were aware that the statement was not relevant to the percentage of USA lower-wage rate workers, (i.e. the working-poor) wage rates that are critically affected by the legally mandated minimum wage rate. You knowingly attempt to conceal the truth. Shame on you.
