I used this as my source.

It seems like out of the 20 states using the federal minimum wage, only New Hampshire is blue.

Average minimum wage:
Red: ~$9.04/hr
Blue: ~$14.86/hr

Median minimum wage:
Red: $7.25/hr
Blue: ~$15.13/hr

Edit: This, of course, doesn't take buying power into account. So take it with a grain of salt I guess. Or feel free to work it out yourself and post it for the rest of us... ๐Ÿ˜„

    Um actually, that's actually $13.26/hr ๐Ÿค“

    But fun fact: That only makes a difference for one state. Nebraska has $13.50/hr as their minimum. In total there are 22 states which are higher.

    Less fun fact: 20 of the states use the federal minimum wage, which is $7.25/hr.

    It's literally having a real effect on kids brains though, especially the short form videos with their constant stream of dopamine. It's also been seen time and time again that the algorithms are pushing people to more and more extreme alt right content. This problem is mostly with the big companies though, with their algorithms actively pushing for this result.
