This meme is a humorous commentary on the wealth disparity in the United States. The image features a quote from a 2020 article by economist Gabriel Zadrozny, which states: "If the minimum wage had kept up with productivity since 1960, it would be over $24 an hour today, not $7.25." The meme is a sarcastic response to this fact, implying that the wealthy have benefited from this disparity while the working class has suffered.
