So the City Council is now bending over and becoming a willing partner of the various Unions and their insane push to raise the minimum wage to some ungodly amount between $12-$15 per hour? WTH? Is there no economics educated people on this current city council? Maybe there has been "no opposition" because NO ONE new about it. I have certainly not read of it before and have had no discussions with friends of business owners over casual lunch's on Castro Street. This is ISANITY run amuck by the brainless, feel good, liberal do-gooders who have already spent 22 TRILLION of YOU, the TAXPAYER, dollars thrown at the "war on poverty". This madness must be stopped. It seems as it may come as a surprise, but NOT ALL of us work at a dot-com, or hi-tec company, Mr and Mrs City Council person, and we do no appreciate, nor can we afford, to have our food, our clothes, or anything else rise in price. The higher minimum wage is raised, the higher prices of ALL GOODS AND SERVICES will soon follow, therefore defeating the intended social re-engineers wet dream of more disposable income for the "poor" among us. Hey, most of us ARE that described "poor" and NOTHING you whack jobs have or are doing is doing one thing except making life HARDER on us. STOP it now before we have NO MONEY left. Stop this madcap vote that the City council has taken it upon themselves, at the orders of their apparent pimps in the unions, to force down our throats. I want to KEEP what little of my money I take home every week. Stop doing us any backhanded "favors".
Don't miss out
on the discussion!
