The solution is the same as it always has been.

Eventually poverty will lead to a renewed interest in piety, rinse and repeat. Just as mosquitoes thive in a swamp, we must drain the swamp in our souls to expel the jew.

The establishment emasculated the left with tranny and race politics. All the energy of the left is wasted on stupid causes. On the other hand, the right (of all kinds) don't care about minimum wage.
In any case, minimum wage is retarded because cost of living is different not only from state to state, but also from city to city. Say New York state passes $20 minimum wage into law. Businesses in NYC won't feel this too bad, while businesses in Albany or Buffalo will have a hard time paying based on that rate. Instead of minimum wage, the government should provide food, water, and shelter to anyone who asks it, even millionaires. This will mean making public housing skyscrapers that have massive kitchens to feed all residents.

Then why is it in countries like Denmark and Sweden that McDonalds workers make the equivalent of 21$/hr in starting pay? Immigrants arent the problem, clearly. It's lack of union representation in the US. Those countries have 95-99% union participation in all economic sectors. Unions force millionaires/billionaires to pay fair wages regardless of the amount of immigration. A minimum wage would work too.

Taxation is the biggest form of theft and reduces the purchasing power of the middle and lower class greater than anything else. With fractional reserve banking, central banking, and federal government, there is no need for taxation. A dumbass liberal econ 101 major will tell you that state governments depend on tax revenue to operate, but what is the point of that when the federal government can just print and give out unlimited money and allocate it wherever it wants? Ukriane has been given over 400 billion so far. That would have completely fixed so many other systems in the US.

The rich don't pay taxes in the same capacity as normal people. Elon and Bezos have all of their wealth in their corporations and stock. All of their travel, food, housing, etc, are paid for by the corporation and used as a tax write off. They don't care about taxes because they don't need an income. Liberals think taxing a neurosurgeon 300k that is making 1.2 million is taxing the rich. They lick the billionaire boots though.

Taxes are what prevent generational wealth from being created. You are essentially taxed 75% in the US and 90% as a Canadian/Australian

Taxes and the federal reserve.
>Taxes
Increased taxes mean property taxes are higher, income tax is higher, sales tax is higher. The property may be “worth more” just because things got more expensive. Think of it this way, the government((())) want more money, you are now making less so you charge more rent to make the same amount you were making.
>Federal reserve 
They want more money so they increase their rates, banks now must pay more to federal reserve, in return they increase the apr on a loan because it may not be a fixed rate. Now you are paying more for the loan you used to buy the property, so you raise rent to make the payments and to earn a living.

Every place near me still lists for like 20/hr if it's a 'good' job that doesn't require 10 years of experience.

Your question can be rephrased as: What causes inflation? 

Low interest rates
QE
High government spending - especially stimulus spending
Population growth
Anything that causes demand to outpace supply.

Asset prices went up, this means real estate prices too. People who rent out condos pass as much of the fees onto the renter as possible. If they had to pay a higher cost for the condo, the interest on the loan is higher, and all the monthly expenses like heating/energy have increased, rent will naturally go up too. Otherwise, why would anyone bother renting out their place?

Businesses can hire immigrants, outsource, automate. They have a few ways to keep wages low. 

You don't have as many options to keep apartment demand low. You can be homeless, live in a tent, live with your parents, not great options. 

So, there's more pressure to keep rent high than wages, unfortunately. A healthy society would accommodate for this, and its government would improve the situation. We are not a healthy society though and our government will likely make things worse.
