Yellow-no state minimum wage
Blue-at federal level (5.15/hour)
Green-higher than 5.15
Red-lower than 5.15

It should be noted that San Francisco has $8.50. And surprise, surprise, some jurisdictions have $15 minimum wages (middle finger points at opebo).

Yes, $15 should be the federal minimum, but somewhat higher may be necessary in the First World portions of the U.S.
Do you have ANY idea what a $15 minimum wage will do?

Shouldn't NJ be green (or has that not taken effect yet)?
NJ raises to 6.15 on October 1

A $15 minimum wage will *gasp* make a mechanic receive *gasp* $100 an hour and a lawyer *gasp* $5,000. I can't afford that.
