President* Biden: It’s long past time we raise the minimum wage to $15 an hour!

Bye bye small business

Ralph’s in Long Beach already said “Peace, we outta here.”

Other businesses to follow.

Raise to $15 then employers lay off many of the workers that were screaming for it, then raises the prices of their goods to compensate for the pay increase and in turn nullifying the employees that are left pay increase by them now having to pay more for the same goods...

I think it is long past due to raise min wage to 350.00 per hour


We would like to welcome our newest Dairy Queen employees

He has no fricking idea what that will do to small businesses because he's never held a private fricking job in his life.

In the name of equity, so we can all be as rich as Bezos, I propose no less than $15Billion/hr.

his handlers haven't either.....and they are the ones truly in power....

I have said this over and over in arguments with liberals. Even if you believe in a minimum wage, it's insane to think that it should be set on the national level. There is simply no reason to think that the minimum wage in California or NY should be the same as Louisiana or South Dakota. Lots of states have set their own minimum wage above the current national one. Still not a good idea in my opinion, but local politicians have a better chance of understanding local economic conditions and the impact of minimum wages in their communities than a one-size-fits-all DC solution. Seems like politically, that is the way to defeat this push--there is simply no need for the federal government to involve itself, even if you think minimum wages need to rise.

Why $15? Why not $20? Why not $1000?

This is great news for China and Mexico jobs.
