Fact: Minimum Wage Won't Even Get You Rent



Addition: Before you say "Oh hey, in a month at minimum wage, I get 160 hours.", keep in mind that cost of housing should never be more than 20-30% of your monthly income.

That must be ancient. GA has had a minimum wage at $7.25/hr for quite some time now - since it reached the new max in 2009 (http://www.dol.state.ga.us/spotlight/sp_minimum_wage_change_2007.htm)
