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.

Socialism and bankruptcy, HERE WE COME!!!!!
Are we sure the businesses aren’t cutting hours following the pay hike? You know, then claiming that the employees want fewer hrs. Seems like bs to me.
Liberals being stupid again
I said from day one that once they realize how much in government aide the would lose, they would be very unhappy with the increase. Even 15 dollars an hour is not a sustainable wage if you are counting on it to make a living for a family. Especially in Seattle. Have you ever lived out there? We have. Twenty-five dollars an hour would still not be the easiest if you have a family. The lower wage accompanied with all of the government $#%&!@*istance was more than a basic 15 dollar an hour rate. What a mess for sure.
