Proponents of the minimum wage often cite it as a tool to uplift people from poverty. While most of these people have good intentions, their economic ignorance crushes economies in some places.
Influenced by the idiotic idea that the state can lift people out of economic turmoil, many states and cities are enacting laws that increase the minimum wage for their area. Seattle is one of these places.
Supporters of the new minimum wage expected it to give the support needed for the poor to lift themselves out of poverty and no longer use the state’s services helping them.
What actually happened will shock you.

You couldn’t be more wrong smh
lol – I don’t work there anymore – but thanks for your advice!
Not myopinion. It has already made the news. Learn to read before you show your ignorance.
duh you think so? when has a poor man ever given you a job?
If paid a decent wage why go anywhere else?
People just don’t get ECONOMICS 101 – – if you raise the price over here – the cost will go up over there – to compensate for the price rise over here.
These people just don’t think – all they can see is more money in the pay check – but when they go to buy stuff over there – they find that the price has gone up – – so you are still in the same boat – with no money at the end of the month …. especially hard hit are the people on fixed incomes
