Raising the minimum wage doesn't solve anything. It will just make the price goes higher. This is what the left does best; always look for an easy way out. If you want to earn more money get a fucking skill and better yourselves. I used to wash dishes and flip quesadillas in college and I was happy with the $7 dollar an hour they paid me and I am glad they only paid me $7/h or I would still be flipping quesadillas now.
Yes, but it's a short explanation. The price goes up with the salary of the people in the area, it's not based on you as individual. The price is more or less, what people are willing to pay for it. Paradoxically, the people get higher salary but also a higher cost of living.
