About 3 years ago I hired two young guys to do some chores on my property. After 20 minutes I went to check on how things for going. They were both sitting down doing nothing. I asked them what was going on. They said "we are taking a break". That was the end of them.

She argued that raising the minimum wage will put more money into workers’ pockets who in turn spend their extra earnings, stimulating the economy and growing industries.

Jayaraman screwed up and didn't demand $30 an hour.

And Panera which “bakes bread” so was safely in the special loophole wage exemption region and ready to make more profits to shovel to the Newsom campaign coffers.

Update: There was a loophole in the loophole so Panera is not really exempt:
The regulations stipulate a restaurant can avoid paying the new $20-per-hour minimum wage only if they prepare and bake bread on-site to be sold as a standalone menu item.
This means the controversial carve-out will likely not apply to Panera Bread, which bakes premade bread dough at its restaurants.

It’s not fair the Newsom has to do what he forces others to do!

He’s part of the “elite” and is thus not subject to his own mandates.

I like to see experimentation by individual states as long as failing experiments aren’t bailed out by the rest of us.

Hey Saru,,,try ths: https://www.edx.org/learn/economics/stanford-university-principles-of-economics?index=product&objectID=course-eef827e8-5004-4056-8e95-67cd489e002c&webview=false&campaign=Principles+of+Economics&source=edX&product_category=course&placement_url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.edx.org%2Flearn%2Feconomics

Restaurants are closing, laying off staff and raising prices...all the things you stupidly say don’t happen when wages are raised artificially and by gov’t. fiat. Its also a big chunk of the reasons Big Mac meals are pushing $18.

Labor can push 50% of the costs of a business. You cannot raise the cost of labor just cuz and not expect failure.
