Whoever said that liberalism is a mental disease had it right.....

Pravda was good at stuff like this, too.

In their minds, it’s time that all San Fransickos suck it up and share in the pain so that these poor folks can get their raise. I would wager that a very large percentage of these restaurants voted for the morons that increased the wages so let it self combust. A few lessons may be learned, although it’s not likely.

California's fiscal policies are putting the state in danger of financial collapse. California is too big to fail and could cause a major disruption to the world economy. In order to protect America, in accordance with the Frank-Dodd law, California needs to be broken up!

They’re waiting to blame Trump’s illegal immigration policy and the WALL!

The Proletariat should not be eating out at restaurants anyway. That is too bourgeois for a good communist.

Are CA state employees’ wages tied to the minimum wage...?

If so, explains a lot.

Liberalism always has an exact opposite effect. (Quinn’s law).

[eyeamok]

Obviously we need a New Law to force these greedy business owners to remain open to keep these jobs in our city.

[all the best]

The real minimum wage is always $0. That is the wage that those who are not skilled enough to qualify for official minimum wage are making. Out of work and not able to get on the first rung of the ladder.

San Jose’s De La Cruz Deli, the last remaining location of a long-lived family of 12 delis, is slated to shut its doors in April after a 41-year run.

But surely Original Joe's will survive. Great restaurant way back when. It's where I learned to like mushrooms cooked in wine.

[Nifster]

So sad to hear that De La Cruz Deli is closing. They had great chili and good sandwiches. Spent many a lunch hour with coworkers sketching out solutions to problems on napkins there

Makes me feel older

[Mr. Jeeves]

That’s OK - the liberals can still go to the only restaurant that can afford to operate in San Francisco: Carl’s Jr. :)

[Newtoidaho]

The silver lining to this story is hopefully a lot of liberals starve to death due to not being able to find any food.

[going hot]

Trumpsfault does not roll off the tongue as easily as Reaganbush.

I went to a Jersey Mike’s sandwich shop. Their prices are way high for a sandwich. A #8 Club Sub 13”giant is $13.95. The #8 Club Sub is $8.50. It is good but I cannot see myself going there again. https://www.jerseymikes.com

Subway is about half the price. So I have headaches from the msg in it. I am saving money.....

The article mentioned that some restaurants are doing away with tables (and the personnel who attend them ) and going to a belly-up-to-the-bar-type “dining experience”.
