  I’m not opposed to a livable wage. What I am against is this stupid idea. Little places are excluded. Basically only large chains are required to follow it even though most are franchises.

  Bakers are excluded. It’s just stupid even if you agree with the intent

    Again it’s the not understanding economics. Not understanding that the market is a signal conducting medium, and that its success depends on those signals propagating, and that price controls destroy the signal conduction.
