Living in the north, I wonder if the situation is any better than it is in the South. What is your opinion? I know our minimum wage is almost $13/hour but many companies are forced to pay more than that to hire almost anyone.

Some pay $15 or more, but with the rise in rent and groceries and families it is far from enough. This is a systemic problem compounded by the effects of multigenerational inequality and the effects of historical racism in the 13 Confederate states. Reparations are on the table, and a living wage with environmentally safe (air conditioning for Amazon workers? safeguards for septic workers and toilet cleaners? bullet-proof vests for wait staff in bars in open carry districts?) workspaces will go a long way towards reaching that goal. This situation is nothing new. It is as old as America and all of humanity. But it is past time, democracies!
