A plan to raise California's minimum wage to $15 an hour by 2022 passed both houses of the state legislature on Thursday, putting the state on track to become the first in the nation to commit to such a large pay hike for the working poor.
So who is paying for the increase in wages?

Let's see, the global GDP is around $135 trillion. I'd say they could.
Well, isn't that an incredibly ignorant post. Why don't you explain to the class what the global GDP is.
You are!So who is paying for the increase in wages?
If you make me do that I'll have to expose why you don't understand what it means. Do you really want that? Someone has 'ALL' the money and it ain't the poor people, hell, it's not even the lower 90%.
You are!
Because if you're like most of us, you're not going to flip burgers under crappy demeaning conditions seven days a week, for starvation wages and no benefits.
So now you're gonna' give a little back, for what you enjoy.
Sound fair?
You can always fire-up the Weber if you disagree ...

That doesn't answer the question. I suppose I should ask you next what percentage of businesses are small businesses.
who is someone? no one can have all the money it isn't possible.

Automation takes place continuously, regardless.now they won't either as businesses will replace them with automation machines.
they just priced themselves out of a job.
so I guess if you consider making 0 more fair than 10 dollars which is the minimum wage now in CA
then yea I guess that is fair.
the final straw in the CA economy.
can't wait to see how bad their unemployment becomes now.
economic scaling will set in and you will see huge massive inflation.
The real question smart guy is how much of business does the top 1% control. Your loaded questions aren't relevant to truth.

Isn't great how we can just legislate this stuff? Why haven't we thought of this before? And really, is $15 enough? Shouldn't we just go to $30? Or even $50? There can't be a downside to this, the genuses that are doing this would have thought of that already.
How about this, what percentage of people are employed by small businesses? You do realize you have no argument, right?
Oh sure, there's a small element that controls the majority. You don't really believe it's spread equally?
