Do you hear the crickets chirping?
I don’t like to report nooze on Sunday, but this latest example of Stupid Government deserves a mention.
California has lost some 10,000 jobs in the fast food industry since huckleberry Gov. Gavin Newsom, on April 1–a day that somehow seems totally appropriate–raised the minimum wage to $20 per hour (https://www.breitbart.com/economy/2024/06/09/report-10000-california-fast-food-jobs-cut-due-to-20-minimum-wage/).
Officials call the massive job loss “unintended consequences.”
I wonder how unintended they were. How wooden-headed do you have to be, not to have realized this would happen?
