Does the wage law say the restaurants can’t raise their prices to compensate. What do they do when the price of meat or potatoes go up?

“I read an article last week that said that Disneyland had raised it’s prices so high that the average family can’t afford going there anymore...”

Easy $700 day for a family of four after parking, some chow and some Chinese made Souvenirs. Lived 15 miles away for all of my 58 years. Haven’t been there since my late teens.

Seriously, who can make it in San Francisco on $15 per hour. The cheap ba$+ard legislators should have insisted on a minimum wage of $100,000 per year. If you buy their argument that raising the minimum wage won’t harm the economy, why not do it right?

If the government is going to keep this absurd level of immigration, which is killing wages, then I think a minimum wage is a good idea. I guess that makes me a communist in your eyes.
