that’s bad, my state only follows federal minimum wage, so that’s $7.25 for everybody
Meanwhile, the additional costs spared:
If you’re a normal/poor person: scraping by -> can’t even live paycheck to paycheck anymore
If you’re somewhat affluent: okay -> scraping by
If you’re a billionnaire: excellent -> excellent (nothing changes)
