Dude, what are you talking about? I live in rural Indiana. I also realize that cost of living is not the same in every area and making the minimum wage one flat rate creates problems when the cost of living is not flat. This is common sense, not a bias against “flyover states” like the one I live in. That’s why I said it should be pegged to cost of living reports that are already conducted by the government across every region of the country. This way if rent goes up, it would automatically be accounted for and adjusted.
This is common sense, not a bias against “flyover states” like the one I live in.
Just because you consider your life to have less value than someone in a non-flyover state, that doesn’t mean you get to tell the rest of us that our lives have less value.
