I don’t think you’re too stupid to understand this question:

If the minimum wage is such a good idea, why isn’t it set at $100,000 a year? Really... Why?

I understand the question...I don’t see why it matters. Minimum wage was first started by Herbert Hoover in order to combat the depression. He was fighting deflation. I have no idea how the government determines what it should be.
