That’s my point, the left has some arbitrary standard of living, despite the fact that even the poor in America are living more comfortably than 90% of the planet. And this standard of living varies depends on who you ask. And we are going to use daddy government to enforce that standard of living for everyone


Federal minimum wage is $7.25/hr. Some states have raised it, such as yours (states rights). Other states, such as mine, still has it set to $7.25.

So for context, we will go by the lowest common denominator which is $7.25 (I had mistakenly said $7.50)
