how do people pay rent with minimum wage? if the state minimum wage is 9 dollars an hour, they'd only make about 945 a month, taxes not included. thats not enough to support one person. what the hell are they supposed to do? assuming they have a high school diploma/GED only and working Mondays to Fridays

Where did you come up with $945?

9.00 x 7hrs a day x 5 days a week x 3 weeks in a month
>>
Well there's 4 weeks in a month, so add that in there as well as 8 hour work days to make it 40/hrs a week.

Why 3 weeks a month?

People on min wage spend most of their income on food + rent.

(9$ x 8 hours a day x (365 days minus 100 weekend days) ) / 12 = 1590 a month

They get welfare and live with roommates/family
