- theandrewbailey 9y agoMost people who make minimum wage are members of multi-income households (like teenagers or spouses working part-time), and don't have any problem with costs of living.
- s73v3r_ 9y agoAnd for those who are not members of multi-income households? Cause from what I can see, only about half of the people making minimum wage (according to BLS statistics) are teenagers. That still leaves a lot of people who do rely on the minimum wage, and are thus not able to afford the rising costs of living.
