Also in case anyone's thinking "at least I never seen a job pay the federal minimum wage," it's where salary negotiations start from for a lot of immigrants, and can go up or down. I was paid $5/hour in my first warehouse job.

    Still tons of jobs in my area that pay federal min wage for anyone who applies.

    So so many people don’t live in big cities or rich states. Low cost of living areas are a trap that you’ll never save enough to get out of, if you were born into one to poor parents.
