Only five states have minimum wage above 15. Only 8 total are at 15 or higher. According to this: https://wagebystate.com/minimum-wage/

    And most major metro areas have their own minimum wage separate from the state.

    Jesus, just stop typing.

    You're been wrong at every turn because you're the shining example the embodiment of the dunning-kruger effect. So confidently incorrect even with literal research at your fingertips that you refuse to use.

    It's embarrassing.

    Listen, I don’t give a fuck about what the rural hicks make. Where most people live, in cities, the minimum wage is significantly higher.

    Further, virtually nobody makes minimum wage anyway. Fewer than 1%.
