Well Death Grips is definitely on the top 5. Justin Timberlake and Beastie Boys. They're pretty good.

That might cover rent and utilities (water, electricity, gas), basic cable and internet. But I assume a person would be living on ramen.

And if you have a car, forget about it. That won't buy your car payments, gas, and insurance. (Which, in my own experience, usually add up to about $300/mo.)

$7/hr is poverty.
One of my friends makes that kind of money after taxes, and she's living with her parents.

Does Florida just have a lower cost of living or something? As trade-off for being literally the worst?

I'm anticipating a stamp of approval. Not that it matters---being thrown in the deep end can be fun too.

"Beastie Boys and Death Grips are two American hip hop acts" is an implausible sentence indeed.

It's called the ****ing South, man. We got plenty of people who believe the concept of a minimum wage is one step away from Stalinism. I was just happy when it went up from being a little over $5 an hour in Virginia a few years ago. $7.25! Woohoo! Rollin' in it!
