[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Seems to me those businesses will just pass on those higher labor costs in the prices of their food and then the cycle begins all over again. Fast food preparation is unskilled labor. [/quote] It’s unskilled labor that’s why minimum wage will be set at $20 for California. Low enough based on the skill needed for the job, high enough for people to take and keep the jobs. It’s been too long that fast food conglomerates have gotten away with advertised 99 cent burgers and paid workers $6 an hour. Raise the prices of the food. Plus do you really want an underpaid worker who has only been there a week and isn’t planning to stay so there’s a constant turnover of workers who have incentive to stay? [/quote] I didn’t see anywhere where those employees were being forced to work for that pay. That’s their choice. If they all move on then the business owners will have to raise wages to keep workers. It’s called capitalism. [/quote]
