A truly remarkable cavalcade of idiots, ideologues, and squishy thinkers. A parade of sports and horribles. Hard to believe they are serious, but then lefties are always serious. Wrong, but serious.
I won't spoil it for you. But don't miss the consequence where the company can't even bid on government contracts because now their costs are too high. Presumably we will soon have a set aside to assure that the halt and the lame of SF get their "fair chance" at being the high bidder yet still winning the contract.
Discuss.

Is there a way we could "excommunicate" California from the US? Do they contribute anything of value to the country? What parasites!
There is no separate minimum for tipped employees? In a tourist location?
Even the feds get that right.
Candidate 1:
"The chamber of commerce is calling on the city to build in a 25 to 30 percent bid allowance for San Francisco companies."
Translation: "Yeah, let's attack the symptom. That usually works. I'm an idiot"
Candidate 2:
"the best studies on minimum wage indicate that the benefits outweigh the burdens placed on employers."
Translation: "Yeah, they are the best studies because they confirm what I was taught at Berkeley. I'm an idiot."
If they really cared about their workers having a living wage then they would lower the cost of living by lifting development restrictions.
I call bull. Their goal is not to achieve living wages. It is to render the city uninhabitable for the poor.
Lone Snark wins. Thanks for playing, everybody!
"Karl Kramer... said a decent wage for a single adult without children in the city would be $15, and that doubles when you have at least one child ..." It's a complete disassociation between the value of what is given (the labor) and the value of what is received. Pop a rug rat; get more money. Well, I have needs too -- so all the (hated) employers of SF should send me checks.
My capcha is "opiner" Really!
1.) What's a 34 year old doing working minimum wage jobs? If he got hit by the downturn and it's a temporary setback, that's one thing. If he just doesn't want to put the effort into holding a good job, that's a whole different ball of wax and doesn't get any sympathy from me.
2.)This sounds like an econ 10 question: If housing prices are high, so you increase the wages of workers, will that raise, lower, or not change housing prices?
