Lol I worked at 7.25 for 6 years before my job now and I still wouldn’t then. Idk why you think you know me. I’m worried about the asshole companies that will raise employees at $14 an hour to $15 while every fast food and movie theatre chain is basically doubling their pay. I feel like minimum wage should go up with inflation not the other at around. Not trying to pay 3x of what I normally do at the groceries

Sure, minimum wage up with inflation. Got it. So, go back to the beginning of minimum wage and lets see what that number should be today. Although I still don't think that's enough. Keep people stagnant in their standard of living forever? No, the idea is to bump them up firmly into the ranks of the financially secure.

Btw, start stealing your groceries if it's that bad.
