From Young Progressive Voices (bit.ly/18g02aM): "In 1968, the minimum wage was $1.60. Now, the federal minimum wage is $7.25. Yet when compared with the inflation rate, how do they measure up?... The buying power of $1.60, as of today, is equal to $10.75 — a 32.5 percent drop. And that doesn’t even begin to account for the massive increases in worker productivity during the same period of time. It’s time to Raise The Minimum Wage."
