>A $200 air purifier Minimum wage is $7.25 in many states. Over 27 hours of gross income to buy that purifier. The median income in the U.S. was $31,133 in 2019, putting that air purifier at over 13 hours of gross income. I've been at my job 15 years, in the rare event that overtime is available a $200 air purifier would cost me approximately the net income of 10 hours of overtime.
