Astaghfirullah wtf is ur minimum wage, I'm pretty sure ur inflation is a lot worse than most countries with MUCH higher wages as well ๐
Minimum wage nationwide in America is $7.25 an hour. Well below poverty line.
Bro I visited NY once and got slapped with the most extortionate prices (excluding VAT ofc), even when converted to my home currency. Considering the dollar's weaker 7.25 an hour is a joke ting, especially since the prices were WAY higher.
New York state it is $15.50 NYC area $16.5 most states have a higher minimum wage except the deep red states
