“Economically, minimum wages may not make sense,” Brown said, according to the Sacramento Bee. But “[m]orally and socially and politically, they [minimum wages] make every sense because it binds the community together and makes sure that parents can take care of their kids in a much more satisfactory way.”

the minimum wage was brought on so that people working in very low skill jobs weren't taken advantage of. there never was any intent for a minimum wage job to be a career job to make a living off of. i'm sorry, but flipping burgers is not a high skilled job that deserves $15 an hour. it just isn't.

I actually get this. At the same time, what fuels our economy are small businesses and consumers. Small businesses, true small businesses, have few employees so this really won't harm them. The consumers are us. The more we make the more we can, and will, buy. Inflation scares have been proven to be wrong in the localities that have practiced this. In short, if I make products as a small business owner, I need people to be able to buy those products. This just made my business more sustainable. It is the most capitalistic goal I can think of.

Have you ever owned a small business? Just starting one? I have and that will kill them, not just harm them. Most don't have the capital to increase all their employees salaries at the stroke the their governors pen. This Will also cause new small businesses to lay off people. They will have to take a hard look at who they employ and why.

Raising the min. wage is going to cut into profit. Two ways that is going to go. Either people will get fired or prices will go up. Could be a combination of both. What we need to look at is doing away with NAFTA and other policies that allow people to ship factories over seas. Time to re-institute some high tariffs to encourage that not to happen.

Most small business owners will not be adversely affected.

1. "15 bucks and hour" so these people are getting $15 dollars plus an hour? 2. if you don't like, don't eat or shop anywhere that promotes this. it's like people ithching about jerry's world then paying the prices to see the cowboys play 3. don't argue with dip, he's just smart enough to make a valid point that none of us can comprehend 4. quit your job and go make "$15 bucks and hour"...you'll be giving yourself a raise 5. where the heck is chukeen? He will return. The great tech nazi's have really lowered the hammer on him so he is taking his ball and going to a new home.

I actually was skeptical about how this could be. Kind of like the legalization stuff from Colorado. The statistics and early data coming in are telling me my skepticism was unwarranted.
