CA Democrat Barbara Lee wants $50/hour minimum wage.
Give a man a fish and he eats for a day. Give a man a welfare check, a forty ounce malt liquor, a crack pipe, an Obama phone, free health insurance. and some Air Jordan's and he votes Democrat for a lifetime.

I don't know....
If they made $50 an hour a minimum wage in California, after taxes that would net a person $2.00 an hour, instead of netting 20 cents an hour like now.
another alternative ( a better one I believe ) is just to eliminate taxation period on California... quit welfare, make people get a job, and quit blowing money on every stupid idiot idea their democRAT politicians come up with.. California could finally get by in life...
Right now the upper class in California are the drug addicted " transients".....

If raising the min wage also got people out of poverty, we'd simply tell 99% of Africa to "raise the minimum wage and you'll be ok". 80% of NGO's wouldn't need to exist.

My company has gone 95% WFH. It already limits it's hiring to 49 states. Guess which one we will not hire from?
They say everything happens for a reason.
For me that reason is usually because I've made some bad decisions that I need to pay for.

That would guarantee no high school kid could ever be hired for any job.

Assume this becomes law.
1. CA turns into a 100% wasteland with the only people employed being political reps.
2. Residents flee to other states, and demand higher wages
3. China moves into CA, along with most of those south of the border
4. New border fence on the east side of CA?
Liberals are incredibly stupid and should all be sent to CA wherein they can be easily targeted. Make CA glow in the dark.....
I am..........disturbed.

California is upside down on the state budget. We get the worst people running our government. Crime is so. bad in the Bay Area, the Governor ordered over 100 highway patrol officers to assist in crime prevention. The sad reality is they need to bring in the National Guard. The Liberals created this mess. $50 per hour is so stupid.

As a Calif Boomer Loser, I vote, YES!
That which hastens the financial and societal collapse of this insane asylum is a good thing. I keep hoping some leading Hispanic politician will propose reparations for affected and displaced Mexicans from the Bear Flag revolt and the treaty Guadalupe Hidalgo. Just think of it, the 39% white citizens can pay the 60% colored citizens reparations. What an economic master plan. Similar to the Somalian economic success.
Well this is a fine pickle we're in, should'a listened to Joe McCarthy and George Orwell I guess.

When that border wall is finished, it should then turn north and separate California from America.

That's why they like apple pay and credit cards..... When you are peeling off dollar bills to buy something then you mentally associate with the things that those dollars used to buy.
