“No one could have saw this coming..”
Someone in the state prison system will eventually figure a way to challenge this in court, and force the prison to pay the $15 an hour for any work done there.
Increased Revenue=Incerased Tuition and fees for those of you in Rio Linda.
HAHAHAHAHA Maroons!
Enjoy those Hundred Thousand dollar student loans.
Bwahahahaha
“This is a big hit,”
...and something that you likely voted for d-bag. These colleges are filled to the brim with liberals. Simple solution for them though...raise tuitions. Again.
Twenty dollar Happy Meals.....coming right up!
Liberals are on a mission to destroy this country.
Now they will have to boost tuition a corresponding amount plus a bit more to pay for the wage hikes.
Good eduction in applied economics
"Planning ahead" is not a skillset found in large doses on university campuses. Merely observe the wailing and gnashing of teeth at the University of Missouri, and the "unexpected sharp decline" of incoming freshmen for next year.
This doesn’t fit the lefty narrative that minimum wage increases are nothing but good.
Clark said, the school could look at reducing the number of student jobs by 650 to 700 positions to cut costs.
I bet the administrators will still get huge pay increases.
But..But...But... “Progressives” always say that raising the minimum wage does NOT affect the job market! Hmmmm....
At the University of Oregon, where the Board of Trustees just voted to raise tuition by 4.8 percent for in-state students in the fall, the new wage will cost an extra $432,779 to implement during the 2017 fiscal year alone. The annual wage increase would have a compounding effect."
An admission that an artificially high minimum wage costs jobs and increases costs? That actually made it into The Oregonian?
Minimum wage closes the smaller stores and shops and further consolidates the bigger operations.
Kills Main Street, further impersonalizes, further emphasizes the unlimited power and beneficence of Big Brother.
Make everything one.
Tuition dollars. Bottom line. Mom and Dad's pockets or our tax dollars. Mom and Dad, or the voters, won't be told about it until the bill arrives.
And the liberals will tell the brainwashed students how they are sticking it to "the Man" and standing up for students working at the school, which they will believe without question while trying to ignore the downsizing and loss of student jobs.
CANT TAK NO CRIDIT CARD. GO IN SIDE AN PAY.
Hand written sign on pump when I got gas last night.
You do realize that sooner or later all of those loans will be "forgiven" and we will be paying them.
Oddly enough, several things are likely to happen.
1. Replacement of low wage workers with mechanized help...robots.
2. Since liberals and Socialists are perfectly happy to spend other peoples money, they forget that employment is the point. So normal low to medium income families will simply stop buying at these establishments, and let competition do them in.
Liberals forget that these are entry level jobs, existing for the purpose of teaching young people entering the work force with valuable experience as their work history begins.
The good news? People may actually learn how to cook in their own homes. Food quality will become better as they will actually know what’s in their food. People will eat better, they will save gas driving everywhere, and families will actually talk to each other at mealtime, and learn to clean dishes. Grocery stores will sell more food...oh wait, grocery baggers wages will go up too...scratch all of that. /sarc
