    People are gonna lose their jobs over that. Plus, fast food places werenā€™t made to be career jobs.

    I canā€™t cook but burritos are the easiest things to meal prep. I can make a dozen burritos for a couple of dollars each, put them in the refrigerator and eat all week. I donā€™t make my own hot sauce or salsa. I just buy that at the store. But as someone that canā€™t cook, making burritos is one thing that Iā€™m confident anyone can do.

    All this is going to do is: More people without Jobs and Fast Food prices will go up and less people will eat at those places which means that some of those places might close more restaurants.

    In the end, everything will be automated further for fast food resturants including the cooking and wrapping of the food, packaging it to the customer on tray or bag!šŸ˜® Only the cleanup crew is and order delivery of the food in store to the customer person(s) are left! One centerized manager overseeing 10 restaurants at once remotely.šŸ˜‚

    I'm conflicted on this one since life in California's big cities is stupidly expensive and I know they're trying to help people with this $20 hr law, but you just know that they'll let workers go because they can't afford to pay them this much.

    When I was in my early twenties living in the Haight Ashbury I could get an amazing mushroom and red cabbage burrito w chips around the corner from my house for $3.95. This was 1993.

    If you raise minimum wage you raise prices for everything else. Companies pass on the cost to consumers. This is just a way to control inflation by making people more poor.

    I bought two falafel wraps yesterday for 2$ , 1$ each but it doesn't have any spices kinda blend but still good one hot and tasty but that's in third country tho , i can't imagine15$ for one falafel that's so absurd and straight rip off

    $20 an hour still isnā€™t enough to live in California
  • @adamfripps3311
    I got a question Jermaine, but is 20 an hour enough to live off cus SF is mad expensive Ive seen a studio apartment go for as much as 1,800 2000 a month and that probably doesn;t include utilities. In order to survive you would have to work like 2 or 3 jobs just to make ends meet, so how is it helping, is all of SF that pricy?

    :face-purple-wide-eyes::face-purple-wide-eyes: 25% increase in way too much... I stopped eating Garbage 12 years ago... about the time I stopped Drinking .. and then Smoking. But there are still people who do all of them..:face-green-smiling::face-green-smiling:
  • @nguday2003
    Not sure if you noticed there is a massive wealth gap - and i believe SF has one of the highest gaps - meaning hyper rich and hyper poor in a 7 mile radius. I think 20/hr is good because when the lowest workers are lifted out of poverty in many cases, it improves the standards for all workers. It raises the bar. To be honest, I grew up in an old money town, and I would say i am solidly Bay Area middle class and I can tell you poor people work very hard, so there is a stupid myth that working low wage jobs are for lazy people. I don't buy into that. I can point to 10 wealthy people that did nothing except be born into a wealthy family. They didn't earn it, yet no one calls them lazy or undeserving.

    Glad this channel popped up on my YouTube feed; I've missed seeing your content. Youtube's algorithm is weird. Thank you for discussing this issue!

  • By raising the minimum wage to $20.00 an hour as a new benchmark, prices will rise for customers .and if you are a beneficiary of the raise you will see how it shrinks when you too go to a fast food restaurant and purchase a meal. All the while , worker's hours are cut, jobs eliminated . Well intentioned but misguided idea.
