Well, expected by everyone except the low-IQ dupes who were sold a bill of goods by Snake Oil Gavin.

Also, make no mistake in thinking the people who run California didn't know this was going to happen. They knew, and they wanted it to happen.

Anyway, I always enjoy stories about blue-state fascists suffering, so here you go:

Gavin Newsom's Minimum Wage Boondoggle Comes With a Big Side of Fail As Automation, Job Cuts Skyrocket​


It’s caused a loss of jobs, as owners have moved to automate more tasks, requiring a smaller work force, and less hours.

It’s raised prices on menu’s for consumers, while providing less customer service.

Newsom’s team refutes the study, claiming, “…it’s not peer reviewed, and its claims are flat-out wrong.” They continue that higher wages boost the economy, and bring people out of poverty, ignoring the claims stating otherwise.

36,565 fast food jobs have been lost in California since AB 1228 was signed into law in September 2023.

The $20 per hour minimum wage went into effect on April 1, 2024.

Between September 2023 and April 2024, over 10,000 jobs were cut ahead of implementation.

Restaurants have rapidly moved to automation, digital kiosks, and reduced hours to offset labor costs.

Fast food prices in California have jumped 14.5%, far above the national average of 8.2%.

Minimum wage is detrimental to any economy in any country.

And they will convince the dupes that it is Trump's fault!

California is 100% hopeless.

No matter how they may suffer under the DNC fascist regime, they can never rid themselves of the entrenched party that has grown too powerful due to such things as corruption and control over the media and academia, forming one of the largest and most deadly cults in the world over the populace, which is Leftism.
 
The leftardz are willing to die on the cross of denial about the facts that are right there in front of them, the whole time.

A higher tax on "the rich" is a higher tax on themselves.

Leftardz suck at logic and math.

I guarantee you EVERY leftist on this board was 100% convinced that businesses would pay the higher labor rate and just eat the loss instead of passing the costs on to their customers and looking for ways to save money elsewhere.

They just KNEW that was what would happen. Ask any of them.

LOL

It is like none of them have ever had a private sector job.

Certainly not in any corporate level capapcity.

Companies do not just EAT labor cost increases. There are cuts elsewhere. Could be hours of operation. Could be overall staffing. You might now have 2 people doing what 3 people used to do. Less benefits. Less spending on maintenance. Lower quality on the product materials. Less expense allowance. Smaller workspaces. HIGHER PRICES. CLOSING OF LOCATIONS THAT ARE LOWER PERFORMING.

On and on and on.

One thing the company does not do is just take the loss. Certainly not for any ongoing amount of time.

Claiming That the Plutes Create Jobs Is Like Saying That Vampires Create Blood

This can't be judged until we are shown the profit margins of the owners. People seem to think that only the Scrooges can determine what their employees' work is worth.

Numbers count; ideologies are meaningless until then.
 
Maybe Cali can lower corporate taxes to make up for the higher labor costs.

😂

Commies will never do that.
 
Gallant ambition with horrendous results.

In fact they were warned this very thing would happen

The people running the state knew it would happen. They wanted it to happen.

The dupes who support Newsom and his crew are the idiots who got caught by surprise. As we all knew they would.
 
If nobody applies for minimum wage jobs then we all win. Let those jobs go away.

Would it surprise you to learn that since the $20 minimum wage increase took effect in Aprill of 2024 that california has had a record amount of fastfood jobs from then till now? Employers are hiring at a rate that far exceeded anything we've seen over the last 20 years. I guess there goes that narrative, whoops!

Try again moron.
New data from the federal Bureau of Labor Statistics was released Thursday, revealing a staggering 36,565 fast food jobs have been lost since September 2023 when the $20 per hour minimum wage law, AB 1228, was signed into law.

That's a bold face lie. California has lost between 10k-30k fast food jobs

A simple search reveals it
