We are planning to run the Helicoptarian economy on stuff like physical silver and crypto and we price things in silver already.

$22.06 minimum wage. Huh..

It's fairly reasonable when you take into account inflation, housing prices and rent.

It was typical to pay hired labour $2 a day.

For that price you could get a year's worth of medical coverage from a fraternal society.

Australian minimum wage $20.33 per hour

Yeah, but Australia is full of dumb faggots.

Unquestioning compliance monkey's.

Get it right.

AUD is worth less though. Also I gather they have massive unemployment and casual employment as a result.

A certain Austrian man with a toothbrush mustache from the 1930's already solved this problem

I've attempted to research to prove or disprove this meme. I believe it is correct based on this website that confirms the melt value of each of these commonly minted quarters today would be about $4.35 for each quarter. By my math that came in at just over $20 in 2021 usd valuation for what was $1.15 minimum wage minted by the US government in 1964.

I ssuck at math but yeah at least $4.35 per quarter. Much higher than current min wage.
