Got bored and did some research. The monthly cost of living in the US is $7,328.21 per household. I did not include size of household, the size of the average household in the US is 2.5 pple, so if we split this in half, cause I don't count partial pple, it's $3,664.11/mo to cover the bare minimum. - ThreadSky

Now if we were to actually make America great again, we would do away with all other forms of wages and do a flat monthly salary of $3,664.11 as the lowest salary. We wouldn't pay based on hours, it would just be, this is the lowest amount you can pay a legal adult in this country.

This is about double the poverty line, so this would put everyone at the bottom of the middle class, this would also be the base amount anyone on ssi would get. And again this is the bare minimum required to live, for a single adult home owner in this country.

I should've added that none of my sources counted renters in their household data, that was a separate line, but renters actually pay on average $1,219.89 more a month than home owners. How fucked is that? So yeah, I'm just counting home owners. I used data from the top 30 search results on google.

This is some utter bullshit. For a home owner, the bare minimum to survive in this world is $3,664.11. That's $916.03 a week, or if we go back to the unfair hourly rate, it's $22.91/hr
But that's what it takes to economically make America great again.
