Now, Los Angeles firms are facing another big hurdle — California's minimum wage hitting $15 an hour by 2022 — which could spur more garment makers to exit the state.
Los Angeles firms aren't the ones facing the big hurdle - they'll simply relocate to a state whose politicians and voters might still have some grasp of basic economic principles. The ones facing the hurdles are the simpletons whose insistence on voting Democrat have ruined the once-great state of California. They will be thrown out of work, and as long as they insist on voting for economic fairy-tales, they deserve their fate.

Consequences of liberal legislation is of no interest to them. They feel good about themselves, that’s all that counts.

“News Flash: Higher minimum wage will bring MORE poverty, not less.”
Wrong. There won’t be more poverty, because there will be more welfare to compensate. Guess who will be paying for it.

In reality it’s more jobs lost by illegal aliens who will now go on welfare.

It’s just a really stupid way to run a state. This is one of those regulations that choke the life out of small businesses and larger companies.

Yes, driving people into poverty to make people government dependent would make them vote for Democrats.
