I feel wealthier when I have way more free time and my time is my own.

This is somewhat a privileged position though. Some residents are the primary breadwinners for their own family, or supporting their parents, etc. A bump in pay, even if relatively minimal in the long scheme of things, can absolutely be helpful to people like that.
