Ordinary Ata rodo that we used to buy for a dollar plus is now about 6 dollars. My wife just returned from the farmers market complaining about the prices of groceries.

Trump who promised to reduce grocery prices has already backed away from that campaign promise.

The federal minimum wage is $7.25, but over half of the states in the US have increased their minimum wage above the Federal minimum wage.

Apart from gas stations, most stores in Philadelphia area paying at least $15 as entry level wage for a new employee

Minimum wage varies between states. The minimum in my state is $15, while in Georgia it’s $7:25. The cost of living also differs.

You keep comparing apples to oranges and that does not show good education.

Compare the earning powers of both people before analysis. You don't just change the cost to Naira as you will. Enough of these sort of threads on Nairaland. That's how they compare UK wages to Naira but never talk about the cost of heating, insurance among others.
Bro, even the educated Nigerians reason with emotions instead of logic and you keep wondering why we are backward.

Bro, you are reasoning with emotions not logic. Americans can afford rent, housing, health with less than 100 dollars. What can a Nigerian salary afford the average Nigerian?
