Thomas Sowell has written about the inherent trade-offs in economics. This is basic stuff.
Hours x Rate of Pay = paycheck
No business can just arbitrarily make the paycheck bigger on a whim. The business needs the Paycheck to stay the same. If Rate of Pay is increased, then Hours needs to decrease. Not rocket science.

Now the Whole Foods people can get another part time job somewhere else, to backfill their wages. Maybe some will become more conservative, as they see firsthand a failed liberal policy implemented.
There are real world consequences to liberal dreams such as a high minimum wage.

Simple Econ 101, you can pick the wage rate or the number of workers/hours but not both.

Let's see...hire more people to keep the stores open the usual number of hours; cut business hours; raise prices again... all of the above, and risk losing customers, cut the quality of merchandise and produce. Reduce services (deli, holiday meals, etc.) Sell the stores and try to recoup what he is sure to lose.
He shoulda stuck books.

They’ve cut back on some sections and made them self serve instead. No employee standing there collecting a paycheck, giving away merch samples.

The whole premise of the minimum wage was that everyone needed to achieve a pay that was viable for their community. Cutting the hours undos what the minimum wage was meant to combat. It’s complete hypocrisy.
