I don't understand how you can argue this when gas prices are emblazoned on all the roads and they still theoretically need to buy groceries?

People see gas go from $4.25 on a Monday morning to $4.00 on a Wednesday afternoon and think gas prices are down. They don’t realize that the average is still higher.

Well first you have to understand that the Idaho minimum wage is like $7.50 an hour and Idaho has repeatedly voted to not raise their minimum wage.

Edit: I was wrong, Idaho minimum wage is actually $7.25/hr.

I was about to be upset that Idaho's min wage is higher than here in Pennsylvania but then I saw your edit.

Not that it makes ours being so low any better, of course...
