Well Newsome signed it, it's now official. The MINIMUM wage now to flip burgers is $20.00 an hour in California

[okfine]

Yes….owned my own business for almost twenty years, LIBTARD.

Hint: money isn’t just created….there’s a cost somewhere.

Why so defensive?

Did you have huge employee turnaround because it was low paying?

 

[okfine]

You still will need some people, even with kiosks - just not as many.

And a hand-up in life doesn’t mean just giving people more than market value. A hand-up is providing them with free education, and we do that via Pell Grants.

They don’t like $12 an hour for flipping burgers? Then get a Pell Grant and take a six-month training program in something.

Whatever. You seem very isolated from reality. You should stay that way because it's no help to others.

Burger flippers in Ca. might now be able to afford the gas it takes them to get to work

 

[Concerned American]

I see less employee turnaround which costs McDonalds. It's a win for them all.

Yeah, kiosks don't quit.

Kiosks don't throw out the trash, either.

I don't know why so many on this site are always so negative and selfish about some that deserve a hand up in life.

LMAO, throwing out trash--one employee who also cleans restrooms, sweeps and mops the floors and picks up the dining area (as long as those still exist). Cashiers presently are the most prevalent jobs and also the ones who are responsible for the most pilferage and also the jobs that are being replaced by kiosks (that don't get benefits like unemployment, disability, SS, FICA, FMLA, sick leave, vacation, health and dental insurance and holidays) Twenty dollar minimum wage will make those jobs obsolete. Careful what you ask for.

I've been to both places.

Cool. Me too.

That’s your answer? “Whatever.”? And then an insult based on nothing.

You clearly could negate the point: if people want to earn more than MCDonald’s pay, they need to acquire more than McDonald‘s skills. We will even pay for the training.

Always an angle to keep others down. How come so many on this site bitch about how shitty this country is?
Maybe because of corporate greed and the fuck everyone but me attitudes.

Tahoe side.

???? Reno is in NV and Tahoe is split by CA and NV.

You know what keeps people down? Giving them OTHER people’s money so they won’t have to better themselves.

 

[Concerned American]

Typical liberal logic. Raising those wages does nothing to help the people receiving it. They will no longer get welfare. They will get taxed at a higher rate and prices across the board will rise to the point that no benefit will be realized. Corporations set prices for what the market will bear. That is capitalism. Liberals seem unable to comprehend common sense.

Get a grip. All you ever do is argue and insult. Maybe it's your history.
Treated badly and reciprocate. That's the BS that those workers receive. If you don't get that crap in 5 seconds someone loses their patience.

That's what Trump's negative interest rates would have done.

Maybe if you didn't get a buzz before you tried to exercise logic, common sense would sink in. You'd probably like living in a fine communist country like China, Russia or N. Korea.

You get a grip. We are trying to explain why simply giving people more than their skills are worth has a lot of negative impact - including a loss of their own jobs.

Refusing to pay people more than their worth incentivizes them to gain skills that will enable them to earn more. Our generous country will even pay for their training programs!

No reason a person with an IQ in at least the 90s cannot learn better skills than a McDonalds job, assuming they speak English. If they don’t, then that should be their first classes - English.

What offends me is that the caliber of this country has fallen so low that we ended up with a president suffering from dementia and now cannot even read off the teleprompter.

Hey, Einstein. What is better--a 30 yr. $500K mortgage at 2.75% interest or a $500K mortgage at 7.83%? Enjoy that $20/hr. Inflation hits every corner of an economy. If you could see past the end of your nose and beyond your next paycheck, maybe you would advance your lot in life instead of claiming that the "man" is holding you down. ROTFLMFAO.
