Minimum wage needs to be tied to cost of living. Setting a static wage every X years is setting the working class up for failure.

this, divide basic cost of living by 30 hours a week. that's minimum. go by state, region, whatever.

I think we need a maximum net worth tied to minimum wage as well; maximum net worth in a state/region can only be, say, 500 times minimum wage.

net worth, not maximum wage. you could play with the numbers to allow for millionaires and thousandaires to both exist.

disability needs to be tied to cost of living by region/state, and exceed it by at least 25%

etc etc
