After increasing wage to $15 an hour, Klavon’s says all positions are filled, morale is up,

Wait I thought they said paying people a living wage will ruin the economy, right?

The only people that say that are the ones that benefit from them making poverty level wages.

 

Food prices have already risen 40%. You like higher prices right? Screw the poor though.

 

Good news though, with the destruction of the economy by the blistering and unscientific lockdowns businesses are desperate to hire employees that are not staying home on unemployment bonuses and the homeless guy I help found a job at a Denny's.

So, do any of you actually help the homeless or do you just whine about businesses not paying what they cannot afford?

 

Enjoy your $20 McBurger and $8 fries prepared by highly educated above minimum wage workers.

 

This ice cream parlor wasn’t required to raise any prices. I’d like to see the global supply chain replenished before I get too concerned about higher prices. Supply and demand controls all.

The article no price increases were required.

 

Well, if they are screwing their rich customers with high prices then eventually the roosters may come home to roost if they had to expand into most of America. Most restaurants run very tight margins.

 

guess the right was wrong....

time to increase the min wage..... long past time imo

That is a fair an point. I just checked out. Their prices seem to be pretty in line with DQ, Ritter’s frozen custard, and Baskin Robbins. I don’t know.

 

I was making fifteen an hour thirty years ago, I am sorry..

 

Yes, around ten years too late for all the damn billionaires squatting on golden terlits like Trump.

 

That’s wonderful. Glad to hear it for you!

 

not how it works, but I wall save this post and respond after the min wage is raised to $15, see if we have those $20 burgers and $8 fires you speak of

 

It's easy, get a trade, or two, or three or how every many you want.

 

Screw trades. Get your MBA and the trade work for you.

But alas, some people need to earn money while they learn trades, no?

 

Sounds like the working poor NEED a raise

 

We are already get higher prices without in increase in wages.

Yeah, I was going that way until kids decided to show up.In about four more years I will finish my three degrees.

 

Elizabeth Warren posed the question to Jamie Dimon JP Morgan's CEO today at the congressional hearing , why do bank CEO's now earn 9.000 times more than their average bank employee today, when in 1980 it was less than 400 times??? He was stumped for an answer.

 

He should have told her that bimbos and Jags ain't cheap.

 

If an EMT gets tired of long hours and contact with bodily fluids, they can make the same money scooping ice cream.

 

The USDA in late April forecast prices for all food in 2021 to rise 2% to 3% from 2020, when prices were up 3.4% from 2019

I see why Twitter and Facebook started flagging posts that have no foundation in reality.
Fake news spreads so quickly.

 

Wages are up? No?

 

You must not shop.

 

Costs would definitely increase with $15 minimum wage, but would it be offset by the increased spending power of millions of people?

Because of that, would it actually end up making a difference at all or just increasing the size of the numbers involved? $15 an hour is only lucrative in a world where the minimum wage is less. When that is the bottom, it becomes exactly that. The new bottom.

And since raising the minimum wage does not automatically mean wages already higher than that would also increase, would it be worse off than it is now?

 

Which is why an EMTs pay will also go up.
