Newsome sings bill in CA to increase fast food workers wages to $22/hour

[Saltwater60]

This will surely help with inflation. This is beyond stupid and ridiculous.

Newsom signs "groundbreaking" law for low-wage workers

"Today’s action gives hardworking fast-food workers a stronger voice and seat at the table to set fair wages."

great, a big mac is now going to be $20??

 

[libertysnake]

Socialism at its finest. Cost by decree.

Yep. And your local store will be down to 2 people. One to take orders and everything else but cook, one to cook.

It'll take you 20 minutes to get that $20 Big Mac as long as you're first in line

those collage degrees are paying off

Might be down to one person. Some fast food chains have already switched over so you can punch your order into a computer

This will rapidly happen if this happens as it seems it will. NYS will follow suit soon.

 

[Deplorable Me]

Now they can afford their electric cars.

Or gasoline.

I bet pictures come out on the other end, instead of words.

 

[GOPerfect]

So, fuck every other type of employee? Only fast food? Seems legit and fair.

Hopefully all of those restaurants close down and leave them all unemployed.

Or both!

Meanwhile in the private ems sector in California…Maybe call a McDonald’s employee next time you have chest pain or uncontrolled bleeding…

The plan is to enrage the other people since fast food workers are bottom of the barrel and then those other enraged workers will demand that money. They also have a higher likelihood of voting democrat because the democrats have them money and maybe they will give me money in the future.
Some one really needs to file suit against this type of behavior because it is not equal protection under the law.

Absolutely. This is what needs to happen. As stated below this is meant to enrage those workers so they demand more money. It will happen and everyone under $22/hour will eventually get more money. Those above $22/hour will just get equalized with those below them. This number is not random.

 

[Apeman]

Not when the restaurant shuts down because they're losing money. A lot of places will close. You can't charge enough for fast food to pay those wages

It looks like a diesel ambulance. They should've went with electric ambulances, and the government would've helped them out.

Absolutely. I would just go eat elsewhere for that cost. Also how does California define fast food? Would these places just change to not meet the fast food definition anymore?

NYS is you pay then get food, CA’s is hard to avoid.

Essentially having you as an employee....for free!

Note- I do not agree pay for fast food employees should be 22/hr.

 

[Cavalry]

Why $22/hr? Thats only $46K a year, no one can afford to have the latest fashion, weaves, nails and Iphone at that pay. I think they should go much higher, maybe $50 an hour. Get these people to the level they deserve.
Fast food was never meant to be a life time career, its meant to be an entry level, part time position. Its pretty fucking simple, get a marketable skillset, work hard, show up, dont start shit, and keep doing those things. It literally is a foolproof way to success.

And California wonders why a 1200 sq ft house on .2 acre goes for $1M.

 

[Truebeliever]

Do you remember when your parents or teachers would threaten you by saying if “you don’t get good grades, you’ll be flipping burgers for your career”. It’s doesn’t sound so bad now.

He probably owns a chunk of robotics stock

Perhaps Governor Noxious should notice his citizens are fleeing to Texas, Nevada, Montana, etc. and realize why? But he is too busy burnishing his liberal credentials for his upcoming presidential run.

You forgot Florida or did you leave it off as to not trigger them emotionally?

Interestingly when you look at the statistics, few Californians end up in Florida - they tend to stay west of the Mississippi. But yes we can add it to the list.
