If u work in one of the regulated jobs and made minimum wage yes Tho the increase is basically just covering inflation. Its not really a real increase in real value What surprised me more is that there is one at all. I did not realize there was a federal minimum wage that some jobs & sectors fall under Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
