The astonishing number of fast food jobs lost - and restaurants
shut - because of California's new $20-an-hour minimum wage
Businesses in the state have raised prices and laid off workers
to cut costs
Fast food chains in California are slashing jobs - as a way
to cut costs after the minimum wage in the state was hiked
to $20-an-hour.
Almost 10,000 positions across chains from Pizza Hut to
Burger King have been cut since the law came into effect
on April 1, according to a report from a trade group in
the state.
On top of that, chains have been shuttering restaurants -
including beloved Mexican chain Rubio's Coastal Grill,
which this week filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy and
closed 48 locations in the state.
. . .
The food fascists - tofu-suckers - are probably
happy about all the closures.
But for Joe Consumer this is a BAD thing, and
represents a large LOSS OF CHOICE (not to
mention $$$).
Newsom is still kissing-up to the Do Nothing's in
the state - over-payment for those who DO bother
to get some few-skills jobs plus "free money"
for all who don't. Thinks they're gonna win him
elections - maybe, soon, the Presidency.
But most others in the state, they now HATE him
and his WokieCom entourage. They see high bills,
less choice, less QOL, killers and dopeheads
and child-molester/mutilators everywhere and
can't STAND it anymore despite the high-holy
'liberal' rhetoric.
