There’s a lot that can be read in to there.
A “decent living” is entirely different to a 15 or 16 year old kid than a 32 year old man with 3 kids and a mortgage. As a 42 year old man with 6 kids and a mortgage and a whole bunch of other responsibilities, a “decent living” is still subjective. Is a “decent living” buying my kids food, clothes, and a roof while making sure they can do a few fun things every once in a great while? Or is it making sure they have an iPhone, a PlayStation 5, brand name clothes, the newest and best baseball bat, access to personal coaches, etc? Guess which one I was raised as.
If you’re going to tell me that minimum wage is meant to support a family with all of the modern expectations, you’d better tell me it should be $80,000 plus a year.
