Or usher in more automation. Some of the big franchises are already on it. McDonald's is working on a burger flipping robot. They have already installed ordering kiosks in many places to eliminate a cashier position.

They will use less servers and the service will decline. No one can cook better than my wife! Going out is a brake for her.

Maybe someday they will realize some people are just not worth 15.00hr.One should have a skill for such money.The only thing they are doing is driving the cost of everything up.

Just when this pandemic is causing hundreds thousands of businesses to close up and people losing their jobs, they do something this stupid. My nephew employs about 12 people in his company. He said he will lay off 1/2 of them permanently if this becomes the law. That's what these employees don't understand. If a business has a labor budget of say, $100 an hour, and they have 10 employees at $10 an hour, they're on budget. If they have to raise it to $15 an hour, some employees are gonna have to go, or the business closes, and everybody loses their job. Or, the rates go up and customers quit using the business and it goes under. Minimum wage workers are not gaining anything with this, because the cost of everything is going to go up

Is government setting the price of labor Socialism? I wonder how long this has been going on. Did it start in 2008?

a friend and his brother owned a Pizza place in ILL , Jan 1 2020 ILL raised the minimum to $10 with an additional dollar each Jan 1 till they reached $15 dollars in 2025
they closed shop knowing very well what their numbers were and both became long term substitute teachers. then covid hit.
America only has one issue, we have a Responsibility crisis and everything else stems from it.
