"Cornell researchers have released data in a new digital wage atlas created by Cornell University’s School of Industrial and Labor Relations (ILR) that revealed more than half of New Yorkers earn below a living wage.
The Cornell ILR Wage Atlas is an interactive data visualization map launched by Cornell University researchers designed to help New York state policymakers, economic development officials and more easily analyze and visualize who earns living wages and where. It also shows which occupations are best or worst for earning a living wage.
According to Cornell, the atlas estimates living wages by county based on household size and local costs including food, housing, transportation, childcare, medical care and taxes."
You still have underpaid people in those states and those impacted by the same dynamics, as it is a national phenomenon.
People are paid based on their value to the company. Anyone who feels that they are underpaid should move to another company. If another company won't pay him more, he can either accept that, or form his own company

Yeah. That's right. Florida has a lot of hotels, and a lot of minimum wage jobs. But their state doesn't squeeze them for every penny. Florida has no income tax!!!!!!!!

The problem again is that this doesn’t change the reality of wages not keeping up with inflation for the American worker at large.
Also, Florida current has ridiculous rental prices and a bad foreclosure problem. So, what may look good from afar may not be as nice as people think it is right now.

It's not the governments job to fix every individuals financial situation. If you look closer, most people create their own problems.
As far as inflation is concerned, it can be traced directly to the current presidents first few days in office, cancelling the pipeline, and sourcing our oil purchases from overseas, despite having more than enough right here in North America.
Kathy Hochel imposing demands on the people, forcing her follies on us, surely raises our COL too.
Pay attention, and it becomes clear that it's the government who creates these problems.
