I think the minimum wage should be raised, but it should be based on the area you live, since many areas require a higher wage to support themselves! It also should have to do with age! If you are 16 getting your first job, you do not require the same income as someone that has bills to pay! They also do not have the same working experience as an adult!

Someone living in New York City, with its high cost of living, might need a higher minimum wage compared to someone in a rural area where the cost of living is significantly lower. Similarly, a teenager working a first job out of interest or necessity might not require the same wage as a single parent working to pay the bills. However, do you think that adjusting minimum wage based on age could potentially lead to age discrimination in hiring practices?
