That’ll solve their unemployment problem for sure....
(/s for those that can’t see it with out it)
Bad news for teens, single moms and other low-skilled workers. But on the bright side, great news for investors in robot manufacturers!
Because there are still some black kids in Chicago that have jobs. Got to keep any of them from escaping from the government plantation.
Well, that’s it, then. I’ll be selling the farm and moving to Chi-Town to makes me some Big Money!

$13/hr rate puts thousands more people on public assistance, some companies will go out of business, some companies will have to raise their prices, the government has to hire more people in their social services department to administer the new dependents, taxes will go up. Eventually Chicago will turn into Detroit.
The laws of economics will not be mocked.
Hopefully, now they’ll be able to purchase a gun to defend themselves from their brothas.
ahhh....go for $20.00 an hour, Rahm.
I’m all for a higher minimum wage for long term workers, along with EVerify and jobs going to qualified US citizens first. But $13 an hour? That’s nuts. That will put those high-paying jobs into the hands of suburbanites, highly qualified people from other areas moving in for them, highly qualified retirees looking for spending money and part time college students. It could created a situation where underemployed Chicago residents have to commute to the suburbs for lower paying jobs!
Go ahead and drive more business from the city. Those that stay will simply automate as much as possible.
Well, I guess we can say goodbye to fast food, unless they get those burger robots going.

Ballerina Rahm can pat himself on the back for his touching “generosity”.
That Rahm Emanuel is so-o-o-oo generous with his money!
What a sleazy commie hack this guy is. No wonder he's one of the scum that surrounds the right hand of the sociopathic DC capo of all capos, Barack Obama.

and who in Chicago will pay most of the higher costs in most every area of retail shopping, from fast food, food stores, pharmacies, clothing, ect., ect. that will be the biggest result of a higher minimum wage? those who earn the minimum wage.
nothing is more emblematic of promising the little guy you’re helping him while you are screwing him, than the legally mandated “minimum wage”.
Those pikers! How about a $100 per hour living wages? To suggest less is putting hate on the working man (and woman). No $100 per hour, no peace. No justice, no peace. Are they racists? $13 per hour is an obvious hate crime.
