This was meant to be a minimum requirement for a wage.
So...how do you determine it? I know you said the imputs...but those still vary in quality...and in the case of food and clothing will also vary in quantity....Is the wage in absence of government assistance? Do you get paid more if you live on your own instead of being a teenager working at McDonalds? Do you make more if you have a kid?
