So Much For High Minimum Wage Destroying Jobs

How many posts have there been saying that Seattle would lose jobs since wages were raised to $10.32 an hour in April?

The rest of the state has a minimum wage of 9.32 with the exception of the city of Seatac where the minimum wage is 15.00 an hour. Seatac is in King county.

How many posts are there saying high minimum wage kills jobs?

If that were true then Seattle, the King, Snohomish counties would be seeing high unemployment.

Which has not happened.

Instead in King County, where Seattle is, the unemployment rate is 3.3%. In Snohomish County the unemployment rate is 3.6%

So while conservatives scream about high wages destroying jobs, the facts prove the exact opposite.

Facts? You're speaking as if facts play any part in their "logic". Dont be silly, just because they didnt lose jobs doesnt mean they really didnt lose jobs. See? Its easy
