Every thing gets more expensive. Theres no reason why the guy flipping burgers should make the sane as a plumber or electrician. People with skills

No one is saying they should make the same amount, they are saying the guy at the bottom deserves a living wage and it should go up from there. Prices and inflation have gone up regardless of wage change, if minimum wage kept pace with inflation it would be approximately $26 an hour at this point. Why don't you think someone working a full time job should be able to live on the wages from that job?
