And those same workers will in the next news cycle complain about the NYC cost of living as in their economic ignorance (perpetuated by their union leaders) their wages, just like taxes, are an integral part of what generates the cost of living where they live and work. All employers costs and all local and state taxes (costs on individuals and businesses) feed into the local cost of living.
Where unions and tax and spend governments prevail it is an endless vicious cycle of risings costs followed by rising demands for more taxes and higher wages, resulting again in rising costs, and full circle to the errors of governments and unions that feed the rising costs. Its a race no one wins.
P.S. Don’t forget to leave a tip for your housekeeper.
