Instead of talking about these ungrateful minimum wage workers who want to be paid $20 per hour, let share some bright and emotional good news:
There are now more billionaires than ever: 2,781 in all, 141 more than last year and 26 more than the record set in 2021. They’re richer than ever, worth $14.2 trillion in aggregate, up by $2 trillion from 2023 and $1.1 trillion above the previous record, also set in 2021. Two-thirds of the list’s members are worth more than a year ago; only one fourth are poorer.

@@dd-uy5lx😂 it will be replaced by automated machines just like self check out at retailer instead of cashiers. You can never force business to pay more than what an employee is worth. Just look how all our customer service call centers moved to India and Mexico😂
And millions of California workers are suddenly becoming aware that the real minimum wage is $0 per hr.

A real reporter needs to put out a story on Newsom and what he pays his employees. Do any of his ventures get hit by $20 minimum wage? Something tells me "no".
My grandson got a raise to $20 an hour.But they also cut his hours by 4 hours.So now instead of sixteen hours he's only gonna get like twelve
So he went from (16x16) to (20x12), or a gross of $256 per week to $250 per week. Sounds like he didn't get ahead in the long run.
He did in socialist mind set less work hourly wise they want to make people lazy
We should go back to 40 hours at $6.50 an hour which is $260…. Which is obviously better than $250 or even $256

Burger & fries more expensive now. Some Restaurants reduced staff due to increased payroll cost & some are coverting to automated computer menu kiosks to avoid paying $20/hr. Great job Neωsom.
Aaaaawwwwwaaaaaa
It's real reason for this is really simple. Raise the wages and Government gets more when those wages are taxed.
They’re always scheming for new revenue sources. That’s the wildest thing about California; our leaders have this weird predatory relationship with the voters. It’s all about fooling and outsmarting them. Look at all the ways we tax the poor: massive state lotteries, the plastic bag “ban” (shoppers now pay for the bags at 3-10 times the bag cost,) cigarette and gas taxes, the most goes on. For the middle class who try to save and invest a little it’s even worse.
Yeah it's like a snake eating it's take. No one can afford the price increases we caused so we have to raise the wage to match the consumer prices. Then the retailers have to raise the price to afford the new wages and so forth and so on.
Gangster tactics
The Italian mafia would be proud
Actually, if they raise minimum wage, people are no longer qualified for welfare.
I manage a restaurant in California. The pressure to run profits is stressful. I, personally, do not go out to eat more than once a month. Can't afford it!
That’s the problem. People that advocate for this minimum wage hike don’t think about small businesses. The bigger businesses can put in kiosks
I went to your restaurant and clogged the toilet sorry about that
The problem is that fast food was always viewed as a starter job, not something that you'd do in your forties. Unless you're aiming for a management position, the idea that a fast food worker needs a living wage is... Odd. I worked fast food while in high school and working my way through college. After college, I moved on. That's the idea, or at least it should be.
People should start cooking at home. It's cheaper and healthier. Government idiots should stay out of economic.
Cooking at home not cheap your Pg&e kills home cooking 😂
Amen.
Totally agree. These people act like we aren't gonna survive without a burger.
I don’t know how much healthier food at the grocery store are. With preservatives, GMOs, pesticides and gene splicing the food at the grocery are just as toxic as fast food.
Well you can't really say that unless you know if the pots and pans your cooking in isn't coated with some kind of chemicals
$20 for 4 street tacos, $40 for a burger fries and fish and chips. $5+ for a gal of gas. Elect bill went from $100 per month to $425 per month.

What amazes me is that our Federal Guidelines for this kind of thing should require a VOTE by the TAX PAYING Citizens to make this kind of (Brainless) Decisions at least be accepted by the public!
As a homeowner I am being GROSSLY Overcharged by anyone and everyone from the Utilities to Insurance to the gas I buy, the Groceries I buy, EVERYTHING UN AFFORDABLE!!!!
Small businesses will be closed, big businesses will go overseas… Americans will be jobless and become homeless.
Great Britain set the Model of our Future.
The minimum wage came into effect in 1998 in the UK and nothing happened, in fact McDonald's and other fast food places exploded. People should look at healthier options and maybe reduce taxes on healthier options. One way or another you'll pay for this unhealthy food whether that's through medical bills or paying higher taxes on Universal healthcare wherever you are in the world.

It is a job killer. It makes the price of everything so up, when labor goes up. It doesn t help one thing in the long run.
Close baby close no more fast food restaurants in California and that's karma. Buckle up butter cups it's going to get worse.
Fast food is a waste of money that is only for people too lazy to make their own food

Once people start getting let go people will realize how boneheaded this hike really is.
Some will, the hardcore liberal Democrats won't because they can never admit they were wrong about anything.
Sadly they probably won’t realize it. When Obamacare was implemented it decimated the middle class and hours were cut all over the place, and everyone just sort of accepted it as the new normal. It’s a big contributor to people’s jobs not being enough to handle the costs of living.
This is California, the land of the low information voter. Do you really expect the people who keep voting for these Marxist politicians are going to wise up ? It's more likely they're just going to blame those "greedy businesses".
So you don’t agree with allowing employees to make enough to keep their lights on at home ?
@@AbsentMinded619this sounds like a propaganda post

Don’t forget the state and counties charge more in taxes for that $20.00 an hour !

Some employees will work less hours because they are lazy and live within their means .
However , the only good I might see is better quality people working and getting more done .
We are going to find out very quickly how this turns out !

What do they bring to the business that warrants $30 an hour?
I would pay $15 an hour tops.

Newsome passed this to eliminate competition for hia friend who runs Panera Bread, as all the other fast food restaurants are gonna shut down.
That political contribution really bought that Panera CEO a great deal!

Fast food restaurants will be CLOSING FOR EVERY IN CALIFORNIA. VOTE Him out CALIFORNIANS
A better approach would focus on helping commercial property owners sustain affordable rents and quality living...the pay increase is decades long overdue but restsutant owners shouldn't bear the brunt without adequate support from those manipulating thee Economy. Agree? Or, disagree? Peace unto you💚✨️
@@papoosemcdaniel7471 The only ones "manipulating" the economy are idiot politicians trying to violate basic laws of economics.
Screw that I won't be buying ill be saving money f these politicians continue to destroy cali
Our family already started making our own burgers & fries at home some time ago, when fast food restaurants began increasing their prices so much that we couldn't justify spending the money to eat out. Now that those same restaurants are hiking their prices again due to Newscum's boondoggle wage hike, I can't see our family being able to afford eating out ever again, until we can find a way to get out of this God-forsaken, Commie-run state.
Gavin gotta Go..😂😂
LaMalfa is my representative, and I am so glad he is. I met him at a car show here in Redding. We talked while looking at cars, and I found him to be friendly and he thought about important issues the same way I did. As such, he is actually my voice in government.
Oh i know exactly what newsome has been up to when it comes to water and forest fires... right before there's been a major fire newsome makes massive cuts to the firefighters. As for the water newsome has been trying to drain the lakes on purpose. I see what goes on around California lakes because i drive a semi truck. Also i live 4 houses down from a large fire fighter station in a area near the uper hills of Sacramento.. NEWSOME IS TRYING TO CREATE THE ILLUSION OF CLIMATE CHANGE. He a deep state gangster
Also the same sections of the bullet train that were built 5 years ago is beginning to crumble just like our highways. Its a money laundry scam

Why do you think a tax attorney makes more than a McDonald's cashier?
@@youtubesucks1499 tax attorneys are overpaid. If it was how you say it is then football players and coaches wouldn’t make as much either
The quick answer is…Inflationary for everyone.
He is correct on forest fires. Either people use the wood, fires consume it or it dies of old age. In most of west fires are the common way of reduction naturally.
This sh*t needs to be repealed immediately.
Wy not 50 dollars an hour or 100 dollars.
The train's already going full speed towards the cliff. You don't have to push anymore.
Yep.
Wealth for all according to the politicians.
There is a senator that wants the minimum wage to be $50 an hour
Should be 30 dollars an hour at todays cost of living. Eat out less.
-Every competing entry-level job (security guards, hotels, etc.) will also be impacted as they must now compete with the fast food jobs, so jobs will be lost across the board.
-Fast food chains can now be much more discriminatory in hiring, leaving the whole class of teens, immigrants, and other entry-level workers with no prospects.
-Since employers will use every angle they can to survive this (higher prices, fewer locations, automation, etc.) it won’t seem THAT catastrophic, but the general quality of life will decrease in many ways. The politicians will keep on blaming greedy corporations for all of the problems, and as long as people keep buying it, nothing will change.
In Ca $20 is crap. Everything is so expensive that $20 is actually a minimum wage. All these food corporations raise prices yearly no matter what. They nickel and dime the consumer without them even realizing.
It was 8 dollars about 12 years ago. nuts.
It was $10 an hour in 2016. And don’t forget that mandated sick leave went from 24 hours to 40 hours a year which was instituted in 2019. Small Business is struggling big-time.
Everyone knows this from high school ECON CLASS. Or they don't have that and Government class for awhile now?
“In-N-Out” gonna hafta change to “Over-N-Out”
😂
I think in and out already pays more than $20 to start. I wont wait in their long lines though, only when they open at 11am
They only went up 25 cents. They have always paid more
We need to protest out side of newsomes restaurant
I'm a carpenter who makes $23 an hour and I gotta buy my own tools. I'm gonna flip burgers and bottom line make more money. Skills ain't worth crap.
You only get 20 hours flipping burgers a week though. Carpentry 6 days if you want.
What are you talking about?
Everyone needs a carpenter.
How are you marketing your side hustle?
You always make more working for yourself.
Ps. Write off your tools on your taxes.
Based on the title no duh they are saving me money f them politicians continue to screw cali up

Crock Pot heaven
Since when does "common sense" have any relevance in California ???
Fast food is crappy and not worth the price. Time to move to another state. Fast food is really unhealthy, even the wrappers are full of chemicals.
LIFE is full of chemicals, where have you been?
Like that guy said! Your a chemical reaction.
@onpoint77408pesticides preservatives gene splicing, growth hormone, antibiotic. All our food is toxic these days. Another side effect is the food has less nutrition .
We do not even need restaurants, They are a luxury for rich people.
If you can not afford to go to restaurants who cares what the price is ?
Doug is right about fire management. I have lived in Shasta Lake, formerly Project City, Toyon/Summit City, Central Valley, and Pine Gtoove, for 77 years. The forest fires , now called wild fires, in my youth were not as severe as those of today. I believe the logging of those woods that occurred in an abundance during my youth was responsible for less severe forest fires. The environmentalists were responsible for shutting down logging. About four years ago, my family and I had to evacuate from our home twice. This never happened in my youth. We now have terms such as fire torados to describe forrest fires. My house insurance went up steeply. Inflation and paying out of fire insurance claims are responsible for this. The Democratic Party and the RINOS in Congress have no common sense. This country is doomed. Thirty-four trillion dollars and climbing. America's leadership has spent trillion of dollars fighting worthless wars for nothing and getting our service men and women killed or crippled.
That stupid move on 20.00 dollar alot restaurants will close up
Smart Move when U think about it...WE don’t need people eating food that is bad for them, and then picking up the tab when their Health fails wile they are still in their 50s ~ Now do we??
You are not wrong...
Who are you to tell anyone how to live?
Punishing the local pizza place and family owned business...60 or more restaurants and fast food clause not understood eh?
In order to compete, local pizza restaurants will have to raise minimum wage.
This filters out smaller fast food businesses eventually will close. This is WEF BlackRock Vanguard state street aim to take control of the market . Then eventually what you eat.
If anything this will discourage big chain fast food from dominating a market. Now independent restaurants can compete with these vertically integrated monopolies
@mb9662 this is the stupidest thing I have ever read on the internet, congratulations.
@@mb9662 Well here's an idea. Take a look at what happened to Russia after the Biden regime slapped so many sanctions on them, and all the American companies pulled out of the country. All those Russian McDonalds & other fast food restaurants' franchisees just renamed their restaurants and reopened, and Russian chains of successful businesses were born. Maybe all these people who own franchises in large fast food companies should end their partnerships with thier corporations, then re-name their restaurant and run it as a small business. As I understand it, small businesses who do not have a chain of locations are not affected by the $20 wage hike.
LOL, many of us warned people what was going to happen, but it seems that the people who never bothered to learn new skills so they could find work elsewhere, never bothered to learn basic economics as well. Hmm, there's a name for people who are incapable of learning, I'm sure I will think of it in a minute. 🤪
I think the word you were searching for is "Democrat".
High rent prices, now higher wages, franchises will close and move to low cost States.

Explain to me the success of In & Out in California
Fast food restaurants downsized the size of their products and charged more years ago.
In-n-Out is family owned and thus no high franchise fees to pay. They may still own their own farm/ ranch(s) for their ingredients.
Do you know what a business model is?
In and Out is privately owned businesses. Do you really not know the difference between that and a franchise?
@@youtubesucks1499 it's called choices
No one forced these individuals to invest in a franchise
We run a successful family business because we chose not to buy into a franchise
Fast food has been gouging people for years same as the bar industry
Once upon a time you'd see the owners eveytime you went
Now individuals want to be absentee owners and expect the same result
Mafia Hitmen and crooked politicians always come with a smile. 😮
The more I examine la malfa the more I like his morals
Well there goes the .99 cent Jack taco's, The cheapest place to eat in California is Costco, 4 hot dogs, 4 sodas and a large pepperoni pizza 16 bucks. I can't get 2 value meals at McDonalds that cheap, will be eating at home more now.
The fast food workers abroad make $20+ and over with benefits. They seem to manage just fine and they're food prices aren't that much more than here in the U.S. If you own a business & can't afford to pay your employees a living wage with insurance benefits, you have no business owning a business. PERIOD! God forbid anyone make a living wage according some folks.
I work in Ohio i work to supplement my sosial security that is not enough to live on if this happens here i will loose my job.
Well I sure won’t ever be traveling to California any day soon. I’m not paying $20 for a Big Mac while on vacation.
People in the fast food industry will have a living wage. If you work full time, you should not need food stamps. The market will decide. It’s called free enterprise. Franchise owners will have to temper price hikes with losing customers. A smaller profit margin is just real trickle down.
No, the other option is to close the restaurant and move those investment dollars into a more profitable ROI.
its going to make it hard for site down Restaurants to keep employees
Businesses are not philanthropic enterprises. They are in the business of making a profit. With this new minimum wage law CA essentially shot the golden goose. The closures of Fosters etc is just the first installment on what may turn out to be a plethora of additional closures. I think the most pernicious part of this law was the creation of a commission that will, willy-nilly, increase the minimum ad infinitum on a moments whim. Who, in their right mind, would subject themselves to this when they can go elsewhere and not be subject to the lunacy of Sacramento legislators.
They know what theyre doing. 😢
Rep. LaMalfa, Thanks for standing up for the businesses and citizens of California. We have vey few representatives for logical and just governance. Glad you are speaking out.
Remember the people voted him in ! Panera Bread will be happy with less competition ! The campaign donations really paid off for their future growth !
10,000 businesses close, 250,000 laid off in one year is my prediction.
How dare they want survivable wages and actually be able to pay rent, I need a fourth Lamborghini you peasants
Fgn🦨
No translation needed. I can smell it. here in Las Vegas.
I've got a suggestion how about we just start lowering our Tax rates instead of having to pay people more, just lower ur overall costs and corruption, it's really easy peasy
Couple points to look at also. That Americans budget more for their fast food than to their grocery lists is why owners of these kinds of mini restaurants are profiting. Yes, this food is hot, fast,convenient, and getting more expensive ( it stopped being cheap a long time ago, who are we kidding). Though the customer pays for it many ways over. With money, they can ill afford. A credit card with a balance at the end of the month. With their own health, including family they are regularly bringing this food to. What was once an occasional family treat for dinner has become a food staple. If this new $20 hr. law causes more people to eat healthier at home, make their own coffee in the morning, a breakfast sandwich or burrito, pack a cooler with whatever is in the fridge, head out the door for their day, can ONLY be a good thing. Think of the money saved at the end of the month, at the end of the week, even! Yes, it's unfortunate for these business owners, exempt employees and workers getting let go. Then, think again of the hard shift in a hot, dangerous kitchen where everybody's on top of each other trying to get this food out. Governor Newsome must have heard these stories thousands of times to realize that anyone working in these conditions is worth this new law. Let the average person experience what's it like in this kind of environment for one day, and that person would totally understand what this is really all about.
Re-Call Newsom and save California!
As a California wildfire victim thank you Doug
Yet the ceo will still make 17.8 million but no one will complain about that! This rich rice baron complaining about people masking a living wage is laughable and hypocritical af!
The end of fast food......thanks Gavin!
Deleted my Starbucks and McDonald’s app
Don’t forget that most people tip about 20% in non-fast food establishments. This new law is like a mandatory tip..
It doesn't bother me that people are making $20/hr in a fast food job. What bothers me is that is the minimum starting wage. Some 18 year old kid with zero work experience starting at $20 is insane. How much do they have to pay an experienced employee or a shift manager? $30/hr and $40/hr? Food will get so expensive that people won't eat out and restaurants will close. Already starting to see that happen with rapid minimum wage increases since 2013. It's a doom loop.
The panera excemption is not true the owner is still paying look it up
invest in companies that make fast food kiosks now
I wonder what the hourly pay is for entry level jobs at PlumpJack?
I'm curious, do politicians in CA, at every level, ever call the governor, or legislators when they are debating raising the minimum wage every year, and try and convince them to not do it, or do they just wait for it to happen, then complain?
QUESTION PLEASE: Does this law include old fashioned sit down restaurants. You know, where a waitress or waiter takes your family to a table and you order a meal?
Imagine a law to force employees to make $300 less and prices increase.
I’m hoping to see the day Employees walk out protesting Gavin Newsom’s $20 minimum wage increase.
According to Open Door, an assistant manager at McDonalds receives a starting wage of $19 per hour. So the question is: IF the person cleaning the bathrooms & floors, & emptying the trash cans now gets $20 per hour, the how much should the assistant manager who is responsible to open & close the store, plus be responsible for all other employees earn? We need free markets to be free, and pay fairly based on the value of the industry and job performance. Let entry level jobs provide exactly what they are intended, to provide a 1st job for young people, or a extra job for those who need it. Young people will learn how to work, and can seek a better and more high paying position as they become trained and educated. Otherwise, just watch how fast business owners decide to pull the plug and move out of the socialist republic of California to continue their businesses in the United States, which many are now planning on doing!...
$20 an hour as minimum wage, 🤔how much money do you think these restaurants generate each day depending on that number this is unsustainable and will lead to business closures
food courts are crowded now. Cheaper eat than restaurants.
Everyone making over minimum wage just took a pay cut and those who make minimum will see no increase in buying power as prices immediately rise.

So many are complaining about this but I personally think it should be 25 or maybe more. The companies make plenty of money. People dedicate their lives to be make these companies succeed and they deserve their fair share of the profits.
Another victory for walmart. Fast food restaurants inside walmart are exempt.
People here in Idaho are still 7:25 an hour we've been that way for 27 years rent is tripled gas groceries they're just making everybody work 2 and 3 jobs what are revenue huh
So, is I just for fast food companies, or is it for all businesses in California? I am not in California, and my state just went to 14.25$ hr state wide 🤔
Really same thing was predicted in Washington state when they raised the minimum wage yet for some reason the opposite happened. Remains to be seen.
20 dollars for a Big Mac?
No can dodo now I’m going to eat healthier and better not to go into a fast food restaurant. In time, restaurants will close and employees will have their hours slashed in half and layoffs galore. It’s already happening ever since the minimum wage reached 15 dollars an hour
Nobody was worried about these people before now out of left field they all care that some might lose their job. The job wasn't bill payable.
A minimum wage is necessary since business has a history of pay abuse before workers and government forced certain standards on them. These same companies still treat workers in countries without these laws as workers were treated in factories in the 1800's.
