Hmm, my dear hometown has seen better days.

Liberals ruin everything everywhere they go.

Don’t you get it, franchisees? They don’t want you.

Some employees are already crying they’ve been laid off because of that $15/hr. Franchise folks can’t handle that increase. Then too, what of those already making more than the MW, would they get an increase as well? What if they’re making more, would they then be dropped down to $15?

Nice for once to see the Supreme Court not getting into local legislative matters. The $15 minimum wage while not good for business, should not be answered by the SCOTUS.

Now the government gets to dictate how much money private businesses have to pay to their employees.

Will be any owners going out of business, and many workers joining the unemployment line.

Already here where I am there has been a surge in food prices and I have shifted to other outlets.

I look a the young workers in grocery stores where prices have gone way up and I can see the fear in their eyes. They know their jobs are soon to be gone.

It’s not their fault, and it’s not the fault of owners, but you can only take so much from the consumer before they find other ways.

SCOTUS made a mistake here. And SCOTUS will be accountable, eventually.

Been nice having jobs out there, hasn’t it? All of us back East will take your jobs here...and hope that your commie neighbors stay out there. Sorry to be callous.

As Robert Bork once said, the Constitution doesn’t prohibit bad law, and not all bad laws are unconstitutional.

The $15/hour minimum won’t be completely phased-in for several more years, but I’ve already noticed a jump in fast-food prices and longer waiting times because of fewer employees. McDonalds used to have two or three counter people, now they often have just one, and sometimes that one is busy with other duties.

Gov’t should have no business in deciding how much someone gets paid.
