Let these companies cripple themselves all because they don’t want to pay fair wages. If they can’t be bothered to ensure humans can live, they don’t need to be in this world.

The people were living just fine before. Now, they don’t have a job in a state with high unemployment. Seems like the governor created a problem when things were working just fine.

These jobs were already lost before the $20 wage. If you live California, you would know this as they have been installing machines to order your own meals, while the counter was no longer there besides to pick-up food. So no this had been planned since before. They are just using an escape goat to say this is why.

@wintermute_oregon @Fiivemacs "Just fine" is a bit of an exaggeration lol

You have a cite for the 10,000 being an exaggeration?

@wintermute_oregon Why would I? I'm not disputing the jobs lost.
