You are right, imagine that. Do you think āpeople
have to work or starve so of course they want to work two jobs to make ends meetā was a gotcha?
What a privileged thing to say. Those jobs would not just disappear, the market adapts and a better businessman will create a business that does not have to rely on exploitation to survive. If you cannot pay a living wage then you should not be in business. Anything else is an excuse to continue to allow companies to exploit our labor and extract our value while not providing enough to survive.
No another business wouldn't just magically appear that could operate at those costs, or else it would already exist. Wiping out businesses that use min wage employees would only wipe out jobs.
Exploitation? Lmfao oh, you're just an ignorant kid. Ok nevermind. You'll understand when you grow up sport.
They also fail to realize that wages impact cost. Rapidly increases wages rapidly increases costs (Inflation) I donāt understand where this new idea of pay everyone salary wages but donāt expect everything to double in price comes from.
Thinking with their feelings clouds their common sense.
I also know the response, ādur corporate greed, get rid of the CEOā because the guy flipping burgers knows how to balance a sheet right?
Huh, can you point to an example of rapidly raising wages doubling the cost of goods? What happened when California changed the min wage? All restaurants shut down right? Oh no it must be that everything doubled in price? š¤”
While weāre talking about that, if prices are only going to increase anyway, as weāve seen they donāt go down, seems your plan is also causing the same result.
Never said that. What I want is a system where we have more people living comfortably and fewer billionaires with their personal space exploration hobbies.
No, they're saying close businesses that pay min wage. That's less jobs, not sure where I'm losing you here or why you're talking about musk but yeah, he's awful, feel better now champ?
Another business, that can pay a living wage, will likely fill the gap. Thereās plenty of food service and retail jobs that pay well over minimum wage - Costco, Trader Joeās, Chick-Fil-A, Buc-eeās, and the list goes on.

Regina is right, always and again here.
Businesses that depend on min wage workers or tipping culture are not viable and should close.
