"There’s not one U.S. city or county where someone working a 40-hr wk on min wage of $7.25 can afford to rent a modest 2-bed apartment. Minimum wage workers need to work 3 full time jobs to make modest 2-bed rental home affordable." - National Low Income Housing Coalition Report

In 2011-2013, I squeaked by on $8.50 hourly part time. I made rent by splitting it with a housemate, so we each paid $300/month for our 2 bedroom apartment, electricity/internet not included. My housemate mostly paid that. I don’t think I paid my own health or car insurance.

So let's raise it to $50 an hour or would $100 be better?
