No! It’s just the way they chose to write the story..I live in Florida and personally voted to raise minimum wage to $15 an hour ,ok this is just the state of Florida.. not the whole Nation so I failed to how Florida raising minimum wage to meet the rising cost of living effects the rest of the nation and their inflation ..Inflation is a given..Have you ever heard of rent going down in areas, HOA fees being lowered? Insurance? No because it only goes up and then they see no reason to lower it again because you paid it then you can pay it now..
