This is great , wanted to avoid the Gterm tho . Guilt is bad , you know ? <| sep |> The problem is setting the minimum wage nationally in the first place . 650 in Madrid is very , very difficult to live on , but if you go to Jan , where you can get 300 a month rent , it ' s not a lot , but it ' s doable . We are talking about minimums here . Raising the minimum wage nationally will just further concentrate economic activity in MadridBasque CountryCatalonia and some medium sized cities where paying more is more sustainable . There shouldn ' t be ANY minimum wage at the national level and should be left to the autonomies . It ' s stupid making the minimum the same for Basque country as it is for Murcia when they are clearly living different economic realities .
