minimum wage is a joke, right?

AP Wire | 07/09/2006 | Rendell signs minimum wage increase

so the minimum wage will increase to $7.15 per hour... What I want to know is how anyone supports themselves on $7.15 an hour, let alone to be supporting kids on that income??

Under the new law, Pennsylvania's minimum wage will rise to $6.25 an hour on Jan. 1, 2007, then to $7.15 an hour on July 1, 2007.

I scoff at any list of "wonders" that included a statue created less than 100 years ago, with no mystery attached to it, but failed to include the statues of Easter Island. (more)

I certainly saw this coming, and I don't know much about building at all. Just seems like common sense. Though I have heard that only 7% of the population has that. (more)
