    I’ll say this again for the mouth breathing politicians in the back.

    Stop making the minimum wage a flat value; base it off of a calculation that’s recalculated quarterly, calibrated to account for inflation, poverty levels, and cost of living on a per-County basis. Then make sure that nobody fucks with the equation.
