Because customers of these establishments have been infuriated at the low prices charged!
Wow and you can talk to a white robot cool
Make it $30 and hour!!!
NY State and California will be a ghost States soon.

You can make the minimum wage $100/hr if you want, but just be prepared to fork over $20 for a hamburger and $90 for a car wash. Those people making $100/hr will still be hollering that they can't make ends meet.
"You cannot live and support a family on $31,000 a year in the state of New York — period," says everyone that lives in the state of New York

Hamburgers are a multi-billion dollar business, and while fast food chains have got the process down to an efficient production line process, making them is still labor intensive with armies of burger flippers and sandwich assemblers. In a move that could put millions of teenagers around the world out of their first job, Momentum Machines is creating a hamburger-making machine that churns out made-to-order burgers at industrial speeds and aims to use it in its own chain of restaurants.
Plissken? Is that you?
Watch NY faail, then fall.]
Then the good RINO’s will vote to bail them out, of course.
I think I would frequent those establishments a bit more. As it stands now, "fast food" joints are a gamble..Is my burger going to be actually cooked? Did the employee actually wash their hands? etc..etc.. I would think I could get in and out of a place quicker through automation (and probably with less attitude from the "help" as they are nose deep texting on their phone while I bother them placing my order).
What next for them then? The world doesn't need many more ditch diggers, that is pretty well covered by heavy machinery. (But alas, I know the answer, HIGHER taxes on the corporations using automation to supplant the "un-employment" the newly jobless are about to apply for)
New York isn’t expensive enough so they had to add this much more to the cost of living.
“The increase would be phased in over three years in New York City and over six years elsewhere.”
That should allow plenty of time to automate most of those jobs.
What will we do for degreed graphic design specialists (my daughter being one)who are being offered jobs at $10/hour in high-cost-of-living San Diego?
based on the way the headline is worded, that’s where I thought this was going.
The quicker you destroy the economy bubba, the faster we can rebuild it and put you and yours back under the rocks from whence you came.
It would apply to employees at any fast-food restaurant with 30 or more locations, impacting an estimated 200,000 workers.
...
So now they’ll split the company into subsidiaries with no more than 30 locations each.
If Cuomo thinks that people with fast-food jobs can’t support their families on their current wages, he might be right. But the extremely unskilled fast-food jobs weren’t designed to deliver wages at a rate sufficient to support a family. They have always been considered entry-level jobs for teenagers. Not the wages of an adult. It is ridiculous to raise the minimum wage to $15/hour to even approach the wages of a “regular” adult job. All you would be doing is encouraging people NOT to get an education which would prepare them to hold down a NON-MINIMUM WAGE job. Why should you reward dropouts and illegals by raising minimum fast-food wages so high?
