@historyinmemes Minimum wage is hell. They give u just enough to survive .. but keep u going back to work busting your ass blood sweat and tears to make the company top dollar while u struggling to get by..
Average rent was 18.7% of the average monthly salary and a new house cost 225% of the average yearly salary. For comparison, in 2021, average rent is 26% of the average monthly income and a new house is 788% of the average yearly income. On the bright side, when adjusted for inflation, the gallon of milk cost $9.81 in today's dollars so at least we can afford to buy lots of milk now?
