$15? $25? $0 because the children yearn for the mines?

No, absolutely not. i think theres a case for a minimum wage, but here its just a baseline for only basic housing. Obviously the national average rental price is much higher than 1200 to start. My conclusion here would be that your housing costs, according to experts should only be a 1/3 or less of your total income.
