He said it would cause jobs to be lost. FALSE! Employers function with a number of employees that bring them the most income/profit. They CANNOT reduce staff. Any more or less employees results in SALES and income reduction. Layoffs result in losses, not gains.
Where is the chart that shows employers the precise number of employees they should hire in order to get the most income/profit?
If a Macdonald's has, say, 6 people on a shift, they need 6 people on a shift. THEY figured that out. If they claim that a raise in the minimum wage will force them to go to 5 people on a shift,
well, why aren't they at 5 people now? Why are they carrying the 6th employee that supposedly they can do without?
