I even recall one libtard claiming that raising the minimum wage actually increases employment. Her "reasoning" was that the extra money that the minimum wage employees receive would increase overall spending, which would raise the level of commerce, etc., etc., blah blah blah. I guess all of the supply/demand stuff I learned while studying for my MBA was just a bunch of capitalist lies.

“Yes, we have raised menu prices. Yes, we’re going to raise them again,” said Jim Phillips, general manager of Studio Diner in Kearny Mesa, who has nonetheless cut staffing from 71 to 65 employees and needs to shed seven more.

Raise minimum wage and the price of a loaf of bread goes up just as much or more. The demwits never learn. How does that libtard explain why my purchasing power has decreased?

A Sonic brown bag special (2 burgers, 2 fries, 2 drinks) used to be $5.49. Now days, that won't buy a burger by itself. But, hey, burger flippers are getting $15/hr and that's all that matters.
