Seattle Min Wage Hikes Crushing The Poor: 6,700 Jobs Lost, Annual Wages Down $1,500 - UofW Study

Just last week we noted that McDonalds launched plans to replace 2,500 human cashiers with digital kiosks like the ones below (see:McDonalds Is Replacing 2,500 Human Cashiers With Digital Kiosks: Here Is Its Math):

Of course, no matter how much anecdotal and/or hard evidence is presented to liberals on the negative consequences on higher minimum wages they simply can't be convinced it's a bad idea. Somehow, the basic economic concept that raising the price of good (i.e. wages) would somehow destroy demand (i.e. employment levels) for that good just does not compute in the minds of progressives.

  1. Be careful what you ask for. Problem here is a problem with ALL Democratic run states, counties, cities and more; they have NO clue regarding how business operates. Socialists will take as much money as they can until it runs out.

  3. 11:04 - I agree with you, dumb democrats. That is from the view of the citizens these democrats are supposed to be representing and looking out for. These dumb democrats simply line their own pockets. Look what they have done to Illinois.

  4. So tired of the media and corporate propaganda. Lets just keep everyone in poverty and tax the heck out of everyone else to subsidize the low wages they pay while making record profits. Anyone that believes this bs is an idiot. The reason we have minimum wages is because employers are so dishonest. they brought it on themselves, and won't "get it" until no one wants to work for them anymore.

  7. Funny.
    Gates and Jobs were intelligence assets who are the front men for work which was accomplished by teams of technicians.
    It is naive to believe otherwise. Research their familial blood lines.
