Looks like we a got a couple other warehouse guys that are going bye bye. If they think they gonna get $15 for moving boxes and pushing brooms, they got another think coming.
Entry level jobs? Who needs ‘em?
Low-skill jobs? Who needs ‘em?
The Progressives will help everyone by making sure that the government checks keep coming.
Like the song said:
Tax the rich
Feed the poor
‘Til there is no
rich no more.
I guess those $15/hr protesters didn’t see that coming. What will they do now? Protest the $15/hr wage that’s killing their jobs?
Mandated $15 per hour results in $0 per week.
The war on jobs continues. Welfare recipients tend to vote for Democrats.
The O'conomy is working as planned!
Another of what Hillary called “under-capitalized” businesses is sacrificed on the altar of leftist theory - or is it just their thinly disguised pandering for votes?
It is both. Manipulating people for votes is the fundamental basis of leftist theory. Truth and morality be damned - they are only about gaining power to enrich themselves, no matter the cost to others.
.....and he’s old and so to hell with it

As Thomas Sowell likes to say, the true minimum wage is zero.
Why is everyone upset about this? This is the Laboratory of Democracy on display. Let NY state raise their minimum-wage to $15, hell to $50/hr for all I care and businesses can make the choice to leave. I just don’t want it happening on a national level.
Leftist: “If a business can’t accept a few percentage points drop in profit, they deserve to go out of business”.
Leftist: “How do you expect government to survive with a 1% cut in spending????”
$15 an hour - Job Killer
Caution progressives at work
At $15/hr. waitstaff don’t need tips. Ohhhh, nooooo! Can’t have that because tips is how they the big bucks. I know one who makes $100-300 a shift at the mall. On a slow night, wages and tips come to $30/hr. for unskilled labor. On a good night, over $50/hr. just keeping water glasses full. Not to mention most tips never show up on their taxes.
One of my friends is a regular there along with some coworkers. While the reasons given probably played a major role as well, my friend said the owner was offered mucho dinero for his property.
There is no $15 Minimum Wage.
Employers have other costs that add to their total Employee Compensation.
It’s more like $18 an hour.
How about a minimum-profit law for employers expected to pay these externally dictated wages?
Comes out of their general revenue fund.
On the other hand, who wants to eat at a place that pays the chefs less than 15/hr? Jeez, is the guy hiring bums to cook food?
What a shame.
The ones that are protesting for the minimum wage escalation probably don’t have a job to worry about. What they are too stupid to realize is there are going to be a lot fewer jobs in the future because the businesses won’t reopen and new businesses won’t come along to replace the ones these “progressive” buttheads drove out of business.
