“Any questions?”
Just one.
Why is the los angeles city council stupid?
Actually youths hurt most. Before the minimum wage teenage unemployment was virtually nonexistent. If you wanted a job, you could find one. The foot on the ladder of success was more important than the pay. Bring back freedom.
This minimum wage business is going to lead to bigger and more powerful criminal gangs.
A simple sandwich-and-a-drink lunch has gone from about $5 to about $10 in the last six years where I live.
That’s an average inflation rate of about 12%.
Well, of course. All you have to do is go onto You Tube and search for Milton Friedman interviews and in many of those videos he makes the point that minimum wage laws are the most racist, anti-black laws currently on the books because they’ve kept many blacks out of the job market over the years.

It doesn't make sense that those competent, loyal long-term trained workers (two years or more) aren't making at least $12 an hour with the chance for at least 35 hours a week of work. That would be a living wage without government subsidies.
It shouldn't have to be a minimum age. In a functioning economy, it's what workers would be paid. Without that, people are fed up and are going to demand the gov do something.
“Investor’s Business Daily tells us, the $15 per hour really is closer to $20.”
More like $25 when you add matching SS, workman’s comp,
unemployment and O’tardcare. Even more if you can afford to
offer paid vacation and sick leave. All this does is open
the doors to more wetbacks in the work force. Wetbacks don’t
need no a SS card and they are exempt from O’tardcare.
$20 minimum wage = more wetbacks but then again isn’t 10%
of mexicos population in California already.
Adjusted for inflation $15.00 would be equivalent to $2.00 in 1965. High, but not earth shattering.
It only makes sense if you understand liberals don’t want blacks serving them coffee or making them sandwiches.
It is good for Democrats to get more people off the employment rolls and onto the welfare rolls. That gains Democrat voters. If the Democrats openly required and enforced all employers firing all employees who are under age 25 and all Negro employes, almost all of the new unemployeds who are not Democrats would instantly convert to Democrat voters because that’s how they insure their paychecks in their new employment as welfare bums.
Middle/upper class white kids will get that summer job. They will get the job flipping burgers part time. Pumping gas, stocking shelves, and making beds. Inner city black/brown kids with zero experience are just going to have to suck hind tit.
Minimum wage laws are RACIST in their disparate results.
More blacks and women unemployed and on welfare. Democrats get to divide and demonize white males. Union wages and prevailing wages go up. What’s not to love?
