The Real Minimum Wage Should Be $25/hr, Here’s Why
You’ve probably heard folks say “just get a better job,” but here’s the truth… it’s not the jobs, it’s the wages. America has a productivity-pay gap so wide it might as well be a canyon carved out by corporate greed. If wages had kept pace with how productive workers have become since the 1970s,

Living Wage vs. Minimum Wage 💰
💸 Living wage ≠ minimum wage. In the U.S., the average living wage is around $20/hr or $41K/year—the bare minimum to cover rent, food, healthcare, and essentials. The federal minimum wage? Still stuck at $7.25. That’s not enough to live—just enough to survive. 📌 Why it matters • A living wage
