This is unfortunate because minimum wage workers who work forty hours a week still find themselves living below poverty level. The U.S. Census Bureau in 1999 determined that approximately 4.6% of all South Carolina workers are living at the poverty level compared to 4.1% nationwide. Other states that have raised their minimum wage even by $1.00 per hour over the federal minimum wage have found state welfare rolls decline while state revenues increase.
