My sister (who owns a small restaurant in CA) was in tears yesterday because the minimum wage went up a dollar. She will close this year.
As soon as all of the illegals get shipped there they’ll have money to burn. That is, tax dollars from people in the other states.
My condolences to your sister. I lived in San Diego in the late ‘70s, and we used to see an endless procession of illegals hoofing it up the valley in Chula Vista, headed north. The Border Patrol didn’t have enough buses to carry them all back to the border once rounded up. CA used to be a great place, good public education, inexpensive energy (hydro-electric) - now the chickens have come home to roost.
“My sister (who owns a small restaurant in CA) was in tears yesterday because the minimum wage went up a dollar. She will close this year.”
She should tape a large poster inside the windows of her vacant establishment explaining why she closed. “Closed due to state-imposed wage controls. Enjoy your unemployment!”
How does she vote?
