I still have yet to hear from one single solitary person who raises a family [in Iowa] on the minimum wage. Not one. And I'm offering a reward of up to $300 dollars (more than a week's wages) reward in order to find one.
Don't forget the original set of rules in order to qualify for the basic prize of $100:
1. Person must be human.Gee, you'd think Iowa Senate Majority Leader Mike Gronstal could have found at least one of the 70,000 to 80,000 family breadwinners he was talking about to come forward and collect the reward.
2. Person must be a citizen of Iowa and the USA (no illegals).
3. Person must be the sole breadwinner of their family. Defined as: the single and only source of income in the family.
4. Family must consist of themselves, 1 or more children, and spouse or partner (includes non-traditional arrangements).
5. Person must work an average of 40-hours per week for a period of at least 1 month.
6. Person must earn exactly $5.15 per hour as an hourly wage during the same period of time.
7. Person cannot be a member of a wait staff or any other occupation excluded from current federal minimum wage regulations.
8. The prize awarded will go to the first person to forward me the name of a confirmed qualified employee as determined by the receipt time stamp on the original email sent to my email address: greg@gregalan.net
9. If the unthinkable happens and there happen to be two individuals in the same household who meet all of the criteria above, an additional $100 dollars will be awarded.
10. Contest deadline. Contest eligibility ends on the day the President of the United States signs a bill into law enacting an increase in the minimum wage.
11. Contest rules and eligibility subject to alteration at any time should the author and provider feel or suspect anything nefarious.
