Nope, I didn't say that. I said that that is the minimum wage, but that doesn't mean that those people a life you'd want. A great deal would be considered poor

Nope, I didn't say that. I said that that is the minimum wage, but that doesn't mean that those people a life you'd want. A great deal would be considered poor but US/EU standards, and live in rather poor zones, lack internet access, natural gas or running water (eg: my grandparents have water pumps to get underground waters at home, because that's their only choice). Several millon people (literally) work in Buenos Aires City, but don't live in the city, and have 1-2 hour trips (one-way trip) to work every day. If you want to stay in a large city, in a relatively safe area, you'd need trice that sum.
