$20 Min. Wage In California To Bring Higher Prices, Layoffs & Automation
The minimum wage outlaws jobs.
The only question is which jobs are outlawed.
In California, any job that can be done for less than $20 are illegal in fast food chains.
Naturally, prices for consumers will go up, workers are laid off (thanks to a law!) while automation, kiosks and robotics replace them.
Smaller businesses go out of business, or are never started; while big businesses adapt with much greater ease.
Sounds a lot like the policies that were imposed under covid, doesnβt it?
But this time, the tool of choice is the minimum wage law.
