LIVING WAGE. In as much as the Federal Government sets the Federal Minimum Wage level (this year it is $7.25 an hour or about $14,000), and businesses (corporate and otherwise) pay the least of their workers by this standard- > It Is Proposed: That the Federal Minimum Wage be re-set to afford 40 hour a week workers the ability to afford basic Food, Clothing and Shelter (at least an efficiency apartment utilities included) wherever that work is done throughout the US. This can be characterized as a Living Wage. >
