Let's Start Calling the Minimum Wage What it Really Is: A "Minimum Pittance"

[JoeOtterbein]

pit·tance
/ˈpitns/
noun
a very small or inadequate amount of money paid to someone as an allowance or wage.

$7.25, or even 11 bucks-an-hour, is the definition of an "...inadequate...wage."

Call it what it actually is. Instead of pretending it is anything like a "wage".

1. It's more like allowance.

We work our asses off and they decide what we can make. The essential workers are treated horribly and paid almost nothing for the risk they’re taking by showing up.
