@wintermute_oregon @Fiivemacs "Just fine" is a bit of an exaggeration lol
Comment on California Loses Nearly 10,000 Fast-Food Jobs After $20 Minimum Wage Signed Last Fall
wintermute_oregon@lemm.ee 6 months agoThe 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.

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

@wintermute_oregon Why would I? I'm not disputing the jobs lost.
wintermute_oregon@lemm.ee 6 months ago
then what are you disputing? People do better employed than unemployed in a high unemployment state. California has the highest unemployment rate in the country.

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.
