Median weekly earnings of full-time workers were $1,118 in the third quarter of 2023. That means half of all people make above this and half make below.
Most people’s problems would NOT be solved if $1,100 went up to say, $1,300

That’s not a fair wage either, so what’s your point?

$67K is not a fair wage?

Try buying a house on that.

When did a living wage become “buy real estate” wage? A house in my area is two million dollars. So you guys really want everyone to become a millionaire, huh?
