Liberals subscribe to magical thinking, believing that free college tuition and free health care to illegals will somehow end up a net win for the public. But reality often intrudes on this magical thinking like a big pimple on the end of your nose, and it is painful and unsightly. In this case, the laws of economics are intruding into the magical thinking of liberal politicians in San Francisco (as if there were any other kind there), and it is a growing problem.
San Francisco has declared that the minimum wage in the city, now being replicated in several other fact-challenged cities, will rise to $15 by 2018, and polls there predict happy, better-paid workers who will finally have a “living wage.” They have also insisted that this will not increase inflation and that it will be a boon to the minimum wage worker. That is a lie. And the impact is just now showing up as the first mandated rise from $10.74 to $12.25 is being implemented by certain retailers.
See who is raising prices in San Francisco, page 2:
Chipotle should of raise their prices more to cover their taxes and other cost that go along with the employment cost!

That’s how it works
and you still can’t afford to live there!
idiots
Told ya so.
yeah your Big Mac will cost a whole lot more too……the workers there think they should get $15.00 an hr…..really I remember that was a job for High schoolers to earn money for gas and school functions….now people want to live off those wages…then aim higher go for the manager jobs but don’t stay flipping burgers the rest of your life and expect that kind of pay.
Has to be!
Wake up Americans….the liberal, leftist, socialist, communist, democrats abandoned ALL logic, reason, and truth years ago!
