[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Because of the inflation, tariffs, and money printing to service the debt, $25 is the new $18. You all are getting raises too. If not fast enough, please apply at a restaurant til you get yours. The dishwasher will still be poor, but at least they can pay their portion of the rent working the same hours they did before. My rent went from $1950 (2023) to $2200 (2024) to $2400. Add everything else that went up. Don't worry about people not eating out. The restaurants have never been busier in DC. Not enough restaurants left I guess. It's more of a luxury now, but plenty of customers for the ones still open. Doesn't mean the restaurant makes money. The people who cannot afford to eat out, haven't been coming since 2022. [/quote] DC wants to pay a living wage. That means being able to afford the SFH American dream, not renting a room and living with roommates. [/quote]
