This is retarded.
He/she is comparing "average" rent with the lowest possible wage.
She should compare average rent with the average wage, or the lowest possible rent cost with minimum wage.

>> No.14538125

That's AVERAGE rent vs MINIMUM wage.
What about 10th percentile rents vs minimum wage?

Considering the median household income in the U.S. is something like 55k, I don't think minimum wage is average pay.

..and in 1964 the min wage was $1.50 - each coin then contained silver so that was equivalent to 1.1 ounces of silver per hour.
Now silver is $15 / oz so that would be equiv to $16.50 minimum wage.

...thats one of the ways they have stolen from you...which is why we must control our money again
