I live in a small Midwestern community where $350 can get you rent in a small 1 bedroom apartment and overall the cost of living is very low.
Raising the minimum wage from $7.25 to $15 would have a huge financial impact on my town and a lot of local places would have to close their doors.
Why would someone think that is same minimum wage used for the big cities would also be the best fit for my small town?
