How long until the LIVs are shocked to see people laid off and hours cut as a result of this bill? Malloy is delusional to think this will somehow help people. All it will do is raise prices and destroy jobs.

Obama says jump and Malloy says how high. There is no question in my mind that Malloy intends to try to get a post in the Obama admin. He has done everything Obama wants.

Obama visits CT, demands Gun Control. CT passes Gun Control.
Obama visits CT, demands minimum wage hike. CT passes minimum wage hike.

“CT” is now short for “CommunisT.”

Automation will reduce the number of workers needed, and reduce the food choices.

Liberals actually believe that wealth can be legislated into existence. Their economic ignorance and hostility to productive capitalism is the prime reason America in general and the Northeast in particular is declining as an economic power.

It’s not meant to “help” anyone except to the unemployment line and onto the dole so that they can be good little RAT voters for millenia...

This makes blue states even less competitive. Good for the red states.

The House vote was 87 to 54, and all 87 supporters were Democrats.

That's because democrats have no problem spending everyone elses money.
If a democrat had to pay for any of this themselves, they'd be screaming bloody murder right now.

Close down businesses. Destroy jobs. These (most) of the local (useful) idiots don’t get it and never will. But their masters in the “regime “ get it. It is part of the continuing destruction of America.

Cheapskates!! Why not make it $50.00 per hour and then all could vacation at the Cape or ski in the mountains? $10.00 is slave wages. Hell, make it $100.00!

The most ignorant in America is the communists. CT is over loaded in its government. Communists never learn that forcing employers to increase wages forces smaller hours, layoffs, and price increases. Which one do they prefer? Watch communists minds at work.

This will leave a mark ($10.10 X 2080 hr = $21K).

Illustrative individual mandate penalties for a single individual with no dependents:
• In 2014, those with income above the filing threshold ($10,000 in 2013) but at or
below $19,500 will pay the $95 flat amount, those with income above $19,500
and below the cap at the national average premium for bronze-level coverage will
pay 1% of applicable income;
• In 2015, those with income above the filing threshold ($10,000 in 2013) but at or
below $26,250 will pay the $325 flat amount, and those with income above
$26,250 and below the cap at the national average premium for bronze-level
coverage will pay 2% of applicable income;
• In 2016, those with income above the filing threshold ($10,000 in 2013) but at or
below $37,800 will pay the $695 flat amount, and those with income above
$37,800 and below the cap at the national average premium for bronze-level
coverage will pay 2.5% of applicable income.

First of all, the government does not have the right to set a minimum or maximum wage.
End of discussion.

Union wages are tied to the minimum wage and that is who this bill is meant to “help.” The poor and young people who will lose jobs and see hours cut are simply collateral damage in the statists’ war for power.

In corporate America, it used to be to give consideration to those that have families over those that were single, in the possibility of a promotion.

Now, with higher minimum wage standards being shoved down America’s throat, I suggest firing all the college kids not involved in career paths, versus all of those that are in business administration and any of the engineering disciplines.

Nothing quite like liberal logic.

“The job you DON’T have would pay at least $10.10/hr.”

If I were a state where most residents lived less than 30 min. drive from another state, I don’t think I’d to that.
