I think currently minimum wage in the states is $7.25 p/hr.

$7.25 x 40 hours = $290, less approximately 25% in assorted payroll taxes and deductions (not including health care), leaves you with around $220 for the week.

That averages LESS than $1,000 p/month to pay ALL of your bills and life expenses.

And some of you think people would be able to live on LESS than this?!

PLEASE!
