As usual, the laws of economics laugh at the attempts of humans.
Many people are finding out the real minimum wage:
$0.00 per hour.
oh wow
you can make 40k delivering pizzas
oh wait
you cant
Dems are vote-buying with this legislation paid for by taxpayers.
but for lerturds feelings and wishful thinking are what matters, not actual economic principles
Im sure that this will, in fact, be the first time that top down economic planning will defy market forces and achieve the stated desired result /s
Loss of jobs (and thus benefits) for employees, higher prices for consumers, lower sales, higher costs, less profit for owners. Sounds like a trifecta.
Minimum wage ONLY for fast food?
so the Left’s plan was to raise the minimum wage to get citizens fired then lower the minimum wage so they can hire Illegals ? LOL
Most of these restaurants are franchises.
The owners sunk their life savings into them, from 500k for a quiznoes to $2mil for a McD’s, for the privilege of selling the branded food with the national marketing.
Those owners won’t give up overnight. It’ll take a little while as they try to cut other costs, reduce employee #’s, raise prices [to the extent permitted], demand food price / subscription changes from the franchisor, etc.. They’ll do all of it and stretch out the demise for as long as they can. The alternative is to walk away from your investment - few can or will do willingly.
But reality will catch up. Few remaining stores and $20 big macs will be the norm. Not a fast food eater, but many are. And they do employ many otherwise useless workers.
So, yay? Thanks leftists?
With an average tip of about $4 per deliver, he was already making over $20/hr. Now he is making 0. I guess he can try out the gig economy, though CA is trying to destroy that too.
Hey stupid, learn roofing or something. Pizza delivery is not a "career".
Pizza Hut should never be a career job. It’s fast food, an entry job to teach a person to move on to a career job somewhere else.
I hate to be harsh, but any one of these workers who lost their gig AND voted for democrats, YOU GOT WHAT YOU ASKED FOR!! Your bleeding heart lawmakers decided that your job was worth “the greater good” You should feel great that your livelihood saw sacrificed to help the downtrodden.
Now they will almost certainly find any hot mike that can and whine that the business owners’ personal GREED was the reason, because as we all know small business owners are all bathing in genuine alabaster bathing vessels while stroking their armpits with string of jewels (with apologies to Dom DeLuise) and can easily afford to ratchet up their employees wages by 25%
This will be followed next year by more tax increases to fund “emergency safety net programs to assist those made jobless by the benefits for the greater good.
Unless you own the place it is NOT a CAREER!
Pizza Hut is NOT ‘fast food’.
smh
let’s not forget this makes it harder to hire HS students looking for starter jobs,.
