Companies don’t have to do anything. You are correct.
Nothing in this law requires companies will expand or create jobs or increase wages.
You make it sound as if there are shortcomings to the law because companies may or may not make business expansion a priority. Or perhaps you take issue with the article talking about inducing certain behavior which we can’t be sure will actually happen.
I'm questioning a claim made in the article. Can we agree that the statement is incorrect?
