Regardless of who is sitting in the White House, I see a dark future where even the most Spartan of apartments are leased to people making at least $20/hr, and everyone else is stuck living wherever they will be allowed to park their cars (if they even own one) for longer than a night.
Unless you are living in a rural area with no jobs, that is certainly not true.
You can put it this way though: at $9/hr you've better odds at surviving in midwest than both coasts.
Thinking about raising a family? Thinking about better lives for your kids? Thinking about a decent vacation a year? Thinking you'll be fine after a single medical mishap? At $9/hr, No sir.
Except in most midwest towns you can easily find work at a warehouse or distribution center for $15-20/hr, while having homes that cost around $150k be pretty common.
