I personally wish every business would visibly show the hidden cost of taxation on the price consumers pay.
I’d be more concerned about a $9.00 burger!!
This is a no tip place. You aren’t required to tip anyone there
The staff are all overpaid
I agree. That’s the only way to get them to realize who pays for it.
I agree! All our bills should come with a breakdown of costs so we can see how much of a bite the gov takes. Uncle Sam has become a vampire..
the only people making waves are the libtards who are freaking out...
I notice there's a poll attached tothis article. Le's freep it. I noticed that the thumbs-up option on the "minimum wage fee" is in the lead at this point, despite the aggressively antagonistic tone of the article.
Kinda off topic but,Yes remember when gas pumps had a breakdown of taxes as part of the price sign.They need to go back to this as to keep it in the publics face
Property tax bills itemize taxes/bonds/fee all the time. I guess the only difference is the government is doing that...
All business costs are passed on to consumers. If not, then over time the business will go bankrupt. Most small businesses only earn a normal salary for the boss.
Every gas pump should show the taxes paid for each gallon of gas. Government is sucking money out of your pocket and the roads, which are supposed to be maintained in return, are horrible.
Nazi governments insist that business willingly submit to their socialist schemes. They are not permitted to resist or protest. They must be punished.
You are correct, this is the best method to show the effect of government laws, let the public see it every time they buy something. Truth in Taxes!
“trying to deny his employees a living wage”
Its RESTAURANT work! It is not now nor has it ever been a living wage job unless you are the head cook or the manager. Its a second income job, an income between other jobs, an income while going to school job. Not an I can live on this for 50 years job.........
People are getting silly with this nonsense. They have lost all prospective thanks to clowns like Obama and Pelosi..........
All restaurants effected by these laws,will pass along the cost to the consumers. Instead of adding it to the bill (which I like because it shows what the government is doing) they will simply raise prices on various items a few cents here and there to make up the difference. YOU pay regardless. No business can allow its profit margin to be used to pay for a Government program (minimum wage) and stay in business.
The cafe owner is doing nothing more, or less, than letting their customers understand that THEY, the customers WILL wind up paying for any “minimum wage”, in the prices.
Customers supporting the government mandated minimum wage have no right to be complaining about that revelation and THEY should be happy to pay it. Customers who do not support the government mandated minimum wage should be grateful the cafe owner is helping to better inform their friends.
At one time, the big oil companies in Illinois started posting a list of all the taxes and fees added per gallon as part of the total price at the pump ... then the state made it illegal to do that.
