Is income equality really growing?

Obviously, but shouldn’t the guy mopping the floors be able to at least afford rent and food?

I’ll go with yes. Now the question is: how that should be accomplished?

Does the floor mopper pick a nice apartment nearby and tell his employer what that will cost per month and also supply a grocery list with a total monthly cost estimate? With that as a base salary amount, how much more should they be paid to be able to afford medical care, utilities, clothing and perhaps some furniture or occasional entertainment?
 
Of course it is growing. Millions of USA jobs with USA corporations are still off shore supporting communism and other dictatorships.

Until the USA is will to bounce up the minimum wage to a moderately comfortable annual salary of say $64,500 nothing will change anytime soon. $17.50 per hour is $33,000 per year ..... not enough. $64,500 annually will not buy nice boats and second homes in Aspen,Colorado.

Small businesses outnumber corporations and profitability as whole. No way small buisnesses can afford $64,500 salaries for everyone.
