"If any job is going to take up someone's life, it deserves a living wage."

You know the $15 an hour minimum wage is one place I may not be in agreement with Bernie. I think $15 is probably reasonable in high cost of living areas like California, New York or Hawaii, etc.

But in Alabama or Mississippi, $10-$12 seems more reasonable.

I know the Federal Government has different COLA's for different areas.

Maybe the minimum wage should be tied to those.
