  1. That's right. It changes the math for low volume times of day. Increasing the cost of "keeping the doors open" makes it unfeasible to stay open longer. Every business owner knows what his minimum income is required to stay open. They aren't in business to LOSE money.

  2.  @roygbiv5164  To what end? Drive the store out of business? Then there is no store in that neighborhood? Businesses WILL NOT lose money. If they do, they WILL close. You can not FORCE a business to lose money. The better solution is to ELIMINATE the minimum wage and allow the MARKET to determine what the work is WORTH.

  3.  @Mike__B  It's still reducing paid hours for someone. And it requires MORE business to make it profitable to stay open. And THAT is the problem with "minimum wage". Raising wages without an increase in productivity or revenue causes business to raise prices and/or cut expenses.

  4.  @roygbiv5164  The "system" never kept me down. Or my children. Explain.

  5. That was during the time when everyone had a video recorder on their shoulder as any parent of a child in sports at that time could tell you. It was probably some soccer Mom on her way home from a game. The rest of the video tape is 6 year olds chasing a soccer ball and kicking each other in the shins.

  6. The best protection for renters is PAY YOUR RENT ON TIME. DON'T TRASH THE PROPERTY! There are three options WILL happen: 1. Rent cost will increase. Landlords are not in this to lose money. Anything that increases their COST or their RISK (such as reduced security deposits) will be passed on to the tenants. The market price for rental property will increase. OR 2. Landlords will SELL the property to owner/occupiers. The number of rental units will decrease and rents will INCREASE. The landlords will then INVEST the money in property in states with lower costs for real estate and less restrictive laws on landlords. OR 3. Small landlords will sell their property to large rental property corporations which will raise rents by reducing competition among landlords. During the period of the "eviction moratorium", before it was thrown out by the Supreme Court, landlords were SELLING their property in order to "evict" non-paying tenants. People with money, property and knowledge always have options.

  8. Those roadblocks not only prevent new housing from being built, it raises the cost of new housing and reduces the supply of housing....further increasing costs.

  10. Incoming...cases of food poisoning and lawsuits for food poisoning. The state has VERY STRICT codes for food safety, but hates homeless Americans so they throw away all the safety measures, because if they die, it will be more room for illegal aliens.

  11. The government FORCING employers to pay employees more than they are worth is not a job growth program.

  12. They will ALL cut jobs eventually. Usually by attrition. The turnover in fast food is very high. All they have to do is wait for people to quit or get fired, then not replace them.

  14.  @LaughingSeraphim  Please provide the data for that statement. "Around the world.." Which countries? How much do they pay in the currency of the country? "Never close..." How many stores in each of those countries are 24 hour locations? I'll wait for the information.

  15.  @zzzz-sf5lr  They aren't LOSING money to deduct from the money they made during profitable hours. You obviously don't own and operate a business. Lol
