Federal min wage in 1991 was $4.25 an hour. Are you telling me that $7.25 is fair 27 years later? Cost of living has gone up almost yearly but our min wage has not.

A factory job I started out doing in 1990 just out of High School I made $7.50 and when I left in 2001 I was making $15.75 per hour cause of moving up the food chain. In 2018 this same factory starts workers out at $16.35 per hour.

I think min wage should be $12.
