Given inflation, it is actually comparable to what it should be.

For the US? I'd imagine so, from what I've heard.

For most other places with a currency called "dollar"? No.

I like it. I think wages should be hands off and it's so low that it pretty much is

If you're being paid $7.25 and you don't like being paid $7.25, go get a job that pays more than $7.25. Raising the minimum wage sends hurt across the entire economy.

Well... yeah. That's what everyone in the real world does. If you don't like your pay, get a better job. If you're not WORTH any more than what you're getting paid, you get more skills.

For the record, raising min wage does nothing.

What should be done is lowering taxes on the lower income earners. That way, everyone keeps their wages, the costs of goods and services remains the same, and their is more money in the economy.
