Sheep Week 8: Answers due Friday at 12

[Biff Tannen]

I went with $20 because anyone can get a job for $15 and you people are communists.

I have heard of fight for 15 but why are those people right? 10 is much more realistic.

Because a livable wage for a single person has a range of $14.85 (South Dakota) to $23.13 (DC)

what does this have to do with livable wage?

You asked where the $15 figure came from and why it is right. The argument for a livable minimum wage is one source from which people derive that number.

I think if someone works a 40 hr/week job, they should be able to support themselves.
