As someone who has run a business, I can testify, I have to fire people every time they jack up the minimum wage. They do this at the state level, when I'm living out here in the country where we can't pay city wages. It's the stupidest fucking policy.
The shame of it is I can't employ white teenagers for menial work and experience. That was always a win-win and gave our kids some sense of money and responsibility. They destroyed all that.
