You're the one oversimplifying things. Like I said already, making a certain percentage of the minimum wage or the prevailing wage isn't what's meaningful. What's meaningful is what you can get with your money. The research is pretty clear that low wage workers, including those making above the minimum wage, benefit based on that standard.

Would you like me to show you some of the best research in the area? I would be happy to share it with you.

It's the overall net effect for low wage workers, but that sucks for you. I know my mom got a wage increase even though she made over the minimum wage at Walmart. And I made minimum wage at McDonald's when it went up, my income went up too. What a good year for a low income household

Oh no, this is a long time ago. I make much more than that now.
