Minimum Wage Now - Jellybean

Posted: Apr 29th, 2016 - 5:29 pm In Reply to: $10 an hour? More like $7/8 now... - Depressed

I didn't know there were still states that had $7/hour. I agree it's basically minimum wage more or less, but more along the lines of $8/9 per hour. Doesn't sound like much difference but one extra $1 an hour is about $160 extra a month for a 40-hour week, which a lot if one is living hand to mouth. Yes, minimum wage is unfair for this job.
