The whole idea behind a minumum wage, is a wage that people can live off of. The current minumum wage, while working full time, puts you well below the poverty line.

And rightfuly so, minum wage jobs are all unskilled labour. They require no real training, an intelligent monkey could just about pull it off.
As soon as you aquire the most minimal of skills you jump up in pay grade, survival of the fittest at its best...
