Yep - and selling the good food (eg. wild salmon, tuna, &c) to other countries, which pay more for it. People need a higher minimum wage and access to the best food in the US, as well as clean water.

Not a higher minimum wage, but a livable wage tied to inflation.

why not just give to every person in the world a guaranteed personal income of two million dollars per day and also include $800.00 per day in food stamps which may also be used to purchase alcohol and street drugs and may be used to pay for the services of sex workers.

AND I WANNA BE A JANITOR AT MCDONALDS HAMBURGER PALACE THAT GETS PAID $40,000.00 PER HOUR GUARANTEED MINIMUM WAGE (ONE HAMBURGER COMBO COST = $6,250,500.99)

Why not just give to every person in America a guaranteed personal income that is livable and incentivizes the family unit? Can't have that because then predatory finance and supremacist Jews wouldn't have much usury points to play with. Janitors are hard workers, usurious predatory finance and meme jobs on wallstreet are not.

Which would be a higher minimum wage, specially if 'livable' means that one should be able to afford a house, and afford to pay for a live-at-home spouse and at least 2 or 3 children, two cars, and an annual month-long vacation to anywhere in the world. Some of this was possible in the US in the '50s and '60s, though many people had mortgages.
