I have thi issue and I am very curious.
First, about my country:
In my country (Romania), the official minimum wage is set to 600 lei / month.
This is for a min(5 days - 8 hours) up to max(6 day - 8 hours) each week.
That mean 176 - 208 hours / month (30 days).
So, hourly minimum wage is 3.41 - 2.88 lei/hour
While exchange rate is now ~ 3.27lei = 1$, we can aproximate that in Romania minimum wage is ~ 1$/hour.
My curiosity is how much is minimum wage ($/hour) in your country ?

Federal minimum wages is $7.25 per hour, California's is $8 per hour. That's about double what it was when I started working in 1982.
