   MAKE THE STATE AND FEDERAL MINIMUM WAGES A PERCENTAGE OF THE COUNTY'S PER   
   CAPITA GDP.   
      
   I WOULD RECOMMEND 65% BEFORE TAXES, 50% AFTER TAXES.   
      
   YOU COULD USE ANOTHER PERCENTAGE.   
      
   BUT RAISE THE STATE AND FEDERAL MINIMUM WAGES TO A PERCENTAGE OF COUNTY PER   
   CAPITA   
   GDP.   
      
   OTHER MINIMUM WAGES ARE THE CITY MINIMUM WAGE, AND THE COUNTY MINIMUM WAGE.   
      
   BUT IN NEW YORK CITY, THE CITY IS BIGGER THAN THE COUNTIES, AND INCLUDES FIVE   
   COUNTIES/BOROUGHS.
