THAT is the reason they use these nice sounding, generic terms like "income equality," "fairness," and "living wage" and crap.

The fact is, these cannot be substantiated or nailed down to any actual number. I will tell you right now, you can live pretty damn good on $10/hr in many parts of Texas, Mississippi, and many other locations. But, you couldn't live AT all on that in New York City or Los Angeles (without government assistance).

Of course, they don't actually care about people, if they did, they would make minimum wage based on the actual cost of living in that area/city/county/state, etc... They don't care, they just need this to be a wedge issue and bash people who won't agree with their premise - which is based on lies and misinformation.
