It wasn’t a quote by FDR, but FDR did talk about Min wage as a living wage.  Which is why I specifically said Family wage, huge difference.  Again, the min wage was never meant to support a FAMILY, which is what I said.

Sure, when FDR spoke of a living wage and purchasing power, he clearly was referring to the 2019 Wikipedia definition, and not what it would have meant when he said it.

Times change....what hasn't is min wage was never meant to support a family...ever.  Not then, not now.  It would be economic suicide.

You're wrong and I'm done arguing with you.
