Cause different parts of the country also set their own minimum wage, some states have $15/hr. Some cities have $18/hr or more.

High cost of living areas and low cost of living areas don't really need the same wage floor.

Yes, the national minimum wage is far too low, but individual states and cities also have the ability to raise it locally, and many already do.
