  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.

    @wintermute_oregon While that is true, I doubt that most people in #California are doing "just fine", the state has tons of problems from cost of living to safety.

      That is outside of the minimum wage increase. That is just bad government. When I left California, there were things I missed, but it was declining rapidly when I left.

        @wintermute_oregon I mean, raising the minimum wage is bad government also. It's all kind of connected.
