twirlgrrl...that the Federal minimum wage hasn't changed since 1997?
It's still $5.15.
According to Google, that's the equivalent of $4.04 in constant dollars. So it's actually gone down quite a lot in the last 10 years.
Isn't it weird that it's not tied to the actual value of the dollar in some way?
