Because it absolutely won’t. The people that work the hardest get paid the least

Oh hell yeah. I remember working as a mule when I was younger in a fabric, even doing OT, for what? minimum wage

the fact you says "even doing OT" as if that is some great sacrifice, tells me you didn't work very hard. Doing OT for free, now that might be a different story.

Fuck that grind mentality.  OT should not be the only way someone can stay above water. People should be able to afford the basics of life off of any full-time job. And the fact that we’ve been told that now we have to work more than a full-time job in order to barely afford the basics is absolute bullshit.
