What a shortsighted comment. Those businesses are struggling because they operate in the low margin environment. The higher minimum wage will mean fewer jobs, no overtime and drastic consolidation and automation-where possible. Overall, it will mean less economic activity, especially in struggling communities, and fewer $$ in circulation. The marketplace will adjust, there's no doubt, but the people who are suppose to be helped by this will pay the price for it. The results are as easily predictable as the Green Energy Act.
