Minimum wage was *never* expected to be a comfortable wage, yet people

We should be talking "fair wage", not a minimum. The job should pay
according to the skills and knowledge required. It has to be higher in
NYC than in Podunk, Ohio too.

If some companies offered only minimum wage, no one would show up for
work. If they do, however, they must deem it fair as they do go to work.
