Nice closer:
‘Question: How do you get a Detroit, a Cleveland, a Chicago, an East St Louis?
‘Answer: By electing a Seattle City Council, sitting back, and letting them do what comes naturally.’
Good. They will reap what they’ve sown.
Perhaps I’m in before the usual nonsensical statement by some Freeper along the lines of “Why not pay them $50 an hour so they can be rich?”
"No one will be fired silly employer! Here is you copy of directive 10-289".
Will be interesting to compare the un-employment stats for Seattle today & a year from today when this great liberal bag-o-crap plan bears its’ fruit. What are they thinking? A low skill entry level job (usually reserved for students) now is supposed to guarantee a nice home & a ‘Vette?
What about all the workers who worked their way up to $15/hr?
Not to mention, higher wages mean, no more Subsidized housing, no more SNAP card, no more Obamaphone, and they will have to PAY for there Obamacare.
I say bring it on, we need more tax payers and less tax takers.
It turns out the workers in SeaTac, WA are not happy with the $15.00 minimum wage.
See http://shiftwa.org/sea-tac-workers-not-happy-with-15-min-wage/ for the story.
Yet another Starnesville is coming.
