Why federally though? Federally that 7.25 number is excellent. If states and municipalities want to raise it then fine. I've seen people who don't deserve 5 an hour let alone 15, yet taxpayers who live in less valuable areas pay rates at a higher detriment than those in more valuable areas.

Call me a hippie communist, but I think anyone with a full time job should be payed a living wage. If the job Isn’t profitable at a living wage then market forces should force that job to be done differently.
