Like, shouldn't the lowest possible tier of pay correspond to the lowest possible tier of living? A lot of ppl I knew in the bay area were two to a room, in cheaper areas/houses, and they had functional, normal lives.

Sharing a room (other than with a partner) is not an acceptable lifestyle for an adult in a civilised country... Just my opinion.

Also, we’ve legally eliminated the actual lowest tiers (e.g. SROs, cheap hotels, and other kinds of mass housing). We do this out if “compassion” but eliminating options you find distasteful doesn’t address the demand for those options.

I think the idea is that you should be able to support a family / dependents (say, ill parent) on a full time job, regardless of the job. Does that help reframe it? So the rational is a job should at least be able to pay for yourself +1 (dependent).

Fast food was never intended to be a career. And people whining about raising minimum wage will soon get a hard lesson in economics. Small businesses will be shut down while large corporations that can absorb the hit will thrive and work on technology that eliminates the job.

For civil society it's not worthwhile to have jobs which require government support for the workers, or create a discontented subclass suitable for radicalization.
