UPI says it’ll only effect 6% of the city’s work force. Bull. It will negatively impact every member.
Why not make it $100 bucks an hour?
Great, now Geneva will look like NYS.
WTG, residents.
So every business with entry level employees making $12.50 an hour will now lay off half its workforce, and the unemployed might end up getting the equivalent of $7.50 an hour.
I guess they don’t manufacture anything in Geneva, primarily a finance capital and service oriented economy.
25 bucks an hour would send the few manufacturing jobs they have left scurryng off to the third world
So,you can make $25 bucks an hour cutting cheese?
So — if a teenager goes into a Mexican restaurant for free chips/salsa and drinks a water — it’s going to cost him $15... Way to drive down business and bankrupt it all! GENIUS !
I’m glad they did this in Geneva. I can hardly wait to read the stories of sky rocketing unemployment, businesses closing and starvation from unaffordable/lack of food. Dumbasses deserve what they vote for
Minimum wage: if you can’t produce enough, you’re punished with poverty.
How Communist.
More like - Geneva votes to abolish all jobs that pay less than $25.
It was $17 francs / hour some 25 years ago when I lived there. It’s always been ridiculously high.
Why are voters so greedy? Why not $100,000 per hour?
