Ranking Idaho’s minimum wage
Idaho's minimum wage is equal to the federal minimum wage, which is the lowest amount an employer can legally pay most workers. Set at $7.25 per hour, this means a person working 40 hours a week for 52 weeks per year will take home just $15,080 per year, less than $1,000 above the $14,570 that the federal government considers as the national poverty line for a two-person family/NewsMax.

Question: Am I the only one who thinks a minimum wage of $7.25 ridiculous?
