"In public policy, a *living wage* is the minimum hourly income necessary for a worker to meet basic needs (for an extended period of time or for a lifetime). These needs include shelter (housing) and other incidentals such as clothing and nutrition. [...] The living wage differs from the minimum wage in that the latter is set by law and can fail to meet the requirements of a living wage..." http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Living_wage
