So you're saying today's high school dropouts are worth 14.8% less than the high school dropouts from 7 years ago?

I'd strongly disagree. I'd say they're equally worthless. But since this country has a minimum wage (in place to prevent crime), they need to keep it's value consistent with the rising cost of living.
