You should try it once and learn for yourself how easy it is.

You want $20 per hour you have to earn that additional money.
And fast food places in parks, auditoriums, etc., but I have yet to see how they justify the exemption. By what pie-in-the-sky can they justify this to a judge when someone sues?
I suspect that one reason you do not want to start a small business with employees is that you know how hard it is.
With a little more introspection you will gain some respect for those who do it anyway.
It is a great learning experience to write up a business plan for a small business, get approved for a bank loan and a year later learn that you had underestimated expenses by 20% or so.

It’s a franchise so it’s a sole owner who pays a fee to the franchiser who has hundreds of places.
This is going to lower tax brackets for a bunch of people as well. People that are able to keep their jobs are unlikely to have much upward movement in the tax brackets. Somebody making $40K doesn't have to worry about going into the next tax bracket at the federal level. There could be some modest upward movement with California taxes..
Basically the market sets the price. If you pay your employees $8 per hour and your competition hires away your trained employees you either raise the wages you pay or your competition will out sell you.
If you have a franchise, your franchise fees remain the same no matter what you pay, your rent remains the same, your utilities remain the same. Sooner or later you raise your prices and the people who used to buy from you 5 days a week can’t afford you so they only come 2 times a week. How do you continue to pay those fixed fees?

The basic issue for any small business is can they increase revenue enough to cover increased expenses.
If they cannot they are done.
A one time big wage hit is disastrous.
The total amount customers will spend on eating out is not going to immediately rise.
Gobsmacking liberals - what a surprise!
(The Law of Unintended Consequences ). “Well, that’s not supposed to happen!”
Newton said it: “For every action there’s an equal and opposite reaction.” I guess Democrats don’t believe in Newtonian physics.
If there is demand for the product he was selling SOMEONE will make will supply it.
Small businesses have a high failure rate in the first five years. Typically the first two years is what it takes to figure out The Business, and the rest of the time how to sell or close before losing everything if not figuring out how to be successful. So you’re right, several cycles make keep a business site “open” but Under New Management.
941 / Unemployment tax closes many businesses., because not enough actual cash flow.
