The day before yesterday it was passed that minimum wage will be going from 9.25 and hour to 15 an hour here in California.
It all sounds good that some will be able to make more money and live the american dream. The part they forget to see is that most all small business can not afford this and big business just won't pay it. Yesterday Heinz announced they are shutting down their plant and moving out of state because of this. Right there is several hundred jobs gone. A small business will cut down on staff to absorb the hit. I will be getting rid of two of my office girls and keep just one. Besides that everything will get more expensive. Housing will go up, gas will go up, food will go up. I honestly don't understand how this is going to help anything?
