Okay, I have to intervene. The cost-of-living-factor has already been mentioned, but the salient point is that the borders drawn in the bill seem random and at discretion, which would have a massive impact. Remember that under this bill, even small changes of population or small differences in population can have an effect on the minimum wage. That leads to the intolerable result that a hard working person who works as hard as his collegue in the next huge city gets a smaller minimum wage because his city or his county is 1.000 citizens too small.
If the regions want to adjust the minimum wage by creating certain areas, let them do it, we on the federal level should just make sure that there is a basic level the regions can not drop below.
