Well unfortunately only you will know what you can live on, or do you expect every employer to gauge employee wages based on how much each employee needs to live on?
The guy that has a large university debt, a drug addiction and 3 kids obviously needs more, so he should be paid more than the guy who has his finances in order, is responsible and well trained?
If your job does not pay enough for you, you have the wrong job. Nobody is forcing you to stay. Why force an employer to pay more?
