    Hence why the minimum wage has been stuck at $7 in the US for fifteen years, no matter who we elect.

    People like getting wealthier, and that includes our multi-millionaire Congress and president.

      Federal minimum wage and state minimum wage are mostly vastly different. Feel free to fact check.

      I do not disagree with your underlying point, but at least be accurate.

        State minimum wage is also lower than the Federal in a few states and most states for tipped workers.

        So you lose me with this weak defense. Biden deserves every bit of criticism his administration receives for their inaction on wages.
