Seattle restaurants are not closing because of minimum wage

[dbackjon]

Another T-bag/Baldy fantasy BUSTED.


Does the right-wing media ever tell the truth? Of course, why would they, when idiots believe every lie they print.

Anti-minimum wage conservatives are in full gloat over a recent report in a Seattle magazine that lots of Seattle restaurants have closed lately or are due to close in the next weeks or months. .

David Watkins of the Lawyers, Guns & Money blog points out that the minimum wage opponents are declaring "We told you so" way too soon. In fact, the article that inspired the gloating doesn't ascribe any of the closings to the minimum wage increase and, indeed, points to different reasons in every case. As for the idea that Seattle restaurants are "closing in record number" (sic), as the Tea Party News Network proclaims, it's just not so.

Its really too bad that Seattle is some kind of battleground for this debate...
because its not the best example
In fact, economically speaking Seattle is actually a BAD EXAMPLE

Very few workers in the Seattle market are actually getting paid minimum wage
and as pointed out frequently the workers who are getting minimum wage - they're kids

The "other" employers who are looking to hire adults (and keep them)
have already raised their employees wages significantly over the past decade...

Just an FYI

[Pwns]

Tman and Baldy? Forgetting someone?

I will concede this one for now and say it looks like smooth sailing for now, but it is not over. Honestly, I hope I am wrong about this.

We're a pretty tough crowd here sometimes, but I don't think pwns did anything to deserve that kind of insult.
