$50 an hour is INSANE.
Fast food employees deserve living wages, as well as full benefits, and PTO. They're hard working folks. The issue is the CEO / CFO / owners' sky high salaries unproportional to their work effort and work value. Why is no one complaining about that, because its easier to blame the poor.
And don't tell me owners took a high risk, they did not. They're protected thru the LLC legal structure.
The only insane thing about California is its governing bodies.
why not make it 1000 dollars an hour?
@@realtrealtoronto After searching some basic stuff up, McDonalds has roughly 150,000 employees 2 years ago, their CEO made around $17.8 Million, meaning if you took the entire CEOs pay check and distrusted it to their employees, it would be a $118 bonus. So I guess you can pay for your employees oil change?
according to inflation, it should already be 20
Why not $500 per hour then? Truly stupid.
Right and then everybody is a winner and a millionaire... my god how stupid
$50 is part of a bad fix for PRIOR bad policies
@@shaheeddolcheydon’t people who don’t do any work at all make a lot more than that? But people who actually work can’t make a decent living?

Raise the retirement age for social security yet allow people to get laid off for ageism. She's whacked.
I know a lady that is 62 got forcibly laid off, lost her apartment and was forced to move into her friends apartment until she was able to move into her daughters apartment.
her daughter is married with 3 children and now her all living in a shoe box apartment. She almost landed in the streets because of ageism at her job.
She couldn't fight the company because she didn't have the funds to pay the fee's the lawyers demanded from her. Mind you she has been at the company for 30+ years.
And social security denied her.
In Alberta for a lot of companies see workers at 30 to be too old to train and keep around. Doesn't matter what you do in the company or how you work. At 30 you still have 35 years to be in the work force. Amazing.

@@user-bv6wq4es3w if you had a federal $50 minimum wage you would need to raise everyone else’s wages and salaries. You’re essentially creating a new bottom line.

Problem with $50 an hour minimum wage is everyone’s else wages above it need to go up as well. You’re not going to be a nurse for $50 an hour if flipping burgers pays the same amount. So everyone’s wages go up a similar amount, the cost of everything goes up a similar amount and everyone is right back in the same spot.

Plus she will send all our money to countries for WAR.
We have to raise retirement age regardless. When Social Security started off the life expectancy was 64. We live in a world where the average person spends over 1/3 of his life being taken care of by others. That’s unprecedented.
When Social Security started, there were roughly 70 people paying in for every one person receiving, and on average that person receiving was going to live only about five years.
Today it's closer to five people paying in for every one person receiving, and that person receiving lives on average 20 - 30 years. So all the trends on the expense side of the ledger are bad. And at some point those paying in are going to rebel at the ever escalating taxes needed to keep SS going.

Even if these people made $50 an hour, they'd still need government assistance in Kalifornia.
Only a few would make $50 per hour. The rest would be unemployed. The increases in minimum wage are a driving factor for self checkout groceries, computerized ordering at fast food places, app based ordering, and other pushes toward automating away the traditional cashier jobs. It's cheaper to build a computer system to do these jobs than pay a human $15 per hour. At $50, California businesses would simply collapse.

It would shut businesses and restaurants down. She is crazy as a loon.
Nobodies pushing 50 bucks an hour just more BS from fox.
Do you mean California the state that subsidizes more red states than any other. Are you kidding me.
50 bucks an hour minimum wage in America's fastest declining city and state. Just one problem: no jobs after employers move or go out of business.
When they raised it to $20 / hour, Pizza Hut fired their drivers pretty fast - they didn't even wait for it to go into effect. Which makes me think @ $50 / hour, plus rampant crime, fast food operators will likely close up shop and make their exit.

My job has had several entry level positions open for a few years now. We've been averaging just 1 or 2 applicants every 3 months. Even harder to get one of those applicants to show up for an interview, and when they do, they literally demand to start at $50.00 an hour.
Friends jobs are experiencing the same thing. Next to no applicants, and the few they get expect $50/hr for positions that pay $16-20/hr to start. They had to close down a couple locations after two years or not being able to hire any new people.

Why is Social Security always running out of money? How come welfare is never running out of money?
SS is always running short because it is not a sustainable program. It started out
that way but quickly lost ground to inflation and demographics. Same for Medicare.
@@edb3877 No government program is sustainable. But this issue can be solved very easily... cut social welfare spending and use it to prop up Social Security.
Social security has been 10 years away from running out of money for at least 35 years.
@@FailsafeZero True, but it's only in the past few years that the amount of Social Security taxes collected did not match the amount of costs of the benefits paid out.
Social Security will always have money, it’s paid for by the current workers after all, the system is currently paying out more than it collects so it’s a simple math problem that it’ll run out in a number of years.
A real danger is the old will vote to increase social taxes to prop the program up.

All salaries and prices would rise by a multiple of 4 vs today. Right back to Square One, but also lots of jobs would be gone at the low end of the spectrum.
Theyre too dumb to realize.
How much money per hour do you make Mr. O'Leary? I understand $50 an hour is ridiculous but, salaries of CEO's and corporate have been ridiculous for years now. The elites need to take a pay cut. You dont need a CEO or corporate to run a burger joint.
Like McDonalds? Umm, yes you do. That’s like saying we don’t need a president. Corporations are incredibly complex and need smart people steering them in the right direction. No corp functions without it c-suite
Exactly
It was already absurd that fast food workers are going to get $20 p/h this year. And now they want an increase to $50? Ridiculous. The inflation it'll cause will be insane.
My late father saw this coming to California back in the 1960s - his Great grandfather was one of the wealthiest businessmen and land owners in San Francisco - and the family thrived there. When we were kids my dad sold out, packed all of us up and left - 1966. Wow, was he right.
I'm a race car driver and an astronaut!
My dad cured cancer !
My grandfather was HG Welles !!!
@@TrumpCantRead You're a troll.
Where did your family move to?
@@fromtheflightdeck252 - first to Seattle (1966) - then spread out 10 years after that.
If he did see it coming.he was SMART
The fact we are even talking about $50 minimum wage shows we haven’t even go to the reality that minimum wage should be abolished all together.
Kevin this best. He's real and just that guy. So smart man
The president of the U.S.A., Larry Fink, knows what he is doing.
Kevin is a very intelligent man. Perhaps the California governor could learn from him. I doubt it though.
Not a chance
Kevin is selfish
@@TrumpCantRead And you're clueless.
Selfishness built the nation's economy. Not taxes.@@TrumpCantRead
So 3 years ago were were fighting for $15. Now they want $50. That world be a $106k , 6 figure for flipping burgers that nobody would buy anymore. AMERICA, WAKE UP !!
The more you give in, the more they take out...
After taxes it’s only about 83k a year that is still poverty in California when homes that are falling apart cost millions of dollars your 83k is nothing
@@Jenkmode89 what company can pay 10-20 employee's $50 an hour?????
Uh, sir, the lawn will now cost $2,000 a week to cut..
@@thedbcooperforum I didn’t say they could afford it. All I said was 50 an hour is still poverty in California

It's like they thinking raising minimum wage to 50$ won't raise the cost of living there. What kind of clown world are these people living?
Miniunum wage was not designed to support a family.
What was it designed for,then?
The letter I got from the SSA moved my eligibility to 72 years now for full benefits. Each year I get close to retirement they push it out several more years. Physically I won't last that long, but that's what they are hoping for so they don't have to pay back what they took.
This isn't true at all. You can take SS much sooner than that. And you shouldn't rely on SS for retirement. You better have a pension and/or 401k/IRA.
@@robloxvids2233 Of course you shouldn't rely on SS for retirement. But that doesn't change his point that they took his (and my) money, and now their only goal is to make sure they never have to give it back. And he did say 'full benefits' so you responded without reading carefully.
Thank your ancestors honestly. They should have pulled the community together and helped the widows etc... but no SS was the ticket. And then your generation just didn't fight it. The next generation already isn't relying on it. We are just paying for y'all HEAVILY. SOCIALISM NEVER WORKS
You'd be insane to think paying a grill cook $50/hr will NOT cause the food he is cooking to be more expensive...
You're insane if you think yearly bonuses paid to management doesn't make the food the works cook more expensive
@@TrumpCantRead Feel free to present some numbers based on a real fast food business if you think that $50/hour is a viable proposition. How many hours of labor are used on a typical weekday at your local McDonalds or Taco Bell or KFC? How much more will each employee cost in terms of unemployment, worker's comp, insurance etc? How much food is prepared, and what does it cost? How much is rent/lease, utilities and insurance for the building? What's the interest payment on capital investments? Franchisee payments to company corporate? Take that number and compare it to your average daily revenue? Go ahead, there are plenty of sources out there. Let's see your numbers work out, OK?
@@TrumpCantRead Some people are paid based on performance, not now many hours they have on a timecard. Something tells me that you don't know much about how business works, not that it would stop you from posting your silly drivel.
@TrumpCantRead I take it you don't have much experience with business?
@@TrumpCantRead It doesn't. They gotten those bonuses for a LONG time, and the food has traditionally always been dirt cheap. Reason being, like it happening or not, the bonuses come from the revenue already generated by the business. They don't take the bonus from their annual budget ya goon.
So the price of a gallon of milk will be up to what . . . $30? Bread will be $40 a loaf?
I'd feel like I'm in Zimbabwe 😂
Ridiculous. And a month after the $50 minimum wage goes into effect, suddenly one bedroom apartments become $10,000 a month to rent, and a happy meal at McDonalds will be $150. Just increasing the “number” of what people are paid won’t fix the problem if we don’t address the real issue, the income versus cost ratio. Also known as inflation. Keep wages where they are but we need to find ways to make everything more AFFORDABLE.
If this happens every restaurant and fast food place will close. It will also drive other businesses out. It will continue to drive people out of COMMIfornia. I got out 10 years ago. Very good move.
Start paying your nurses and police and fire fighters decent wages first! This is insane!
people flipping burgers making more than people who risk their lives or skilled jobs. it sounds like democrats.
If McJobs pay $50/hr, RNsLPNs/CNAs will need $300/$$150/hr. Everybody better be willing to take elderly nursing home residents into mansions' spare rooms and pay help to care for them.
California is filled with losers they are called Gavin Newsom and democrats and the idiots that voted for them!
Teachers too!
This is called Democrat Equality!
Wooow the guy who's failed at making money and only succeeds through crime and description doesn't want fair pay for people?
I'm shocked
I’d vote for Kevin O’Leary.
How can it be running out of money for social security but we never run out of money for Welfare and free health care for Illegals?
🤔
Minimum wage is not meant to be a living wage, its meant to be a starting wage for those entering the workforce with minimal skills!!!!....If they increased minimum wage to $50/hr...that would mean ALL prices would need to double or triple to pay for that wage leaving the people in the same financial place.....here is an idea, lets open the boarders, allow those people to come in and work for less than the average person forcing the wages down so everyone will be homeless!
Where does it say min wage is not mean to be a living wage?
where does the Constitution state : "Minimum wage is not meant to be a living wage," ?
@@Saberwolves84 Ever heard of COMMON SENSE?
@@TrumpCantRead Where does the Constitution say anything about regulating wages?
@@Saberwolves84 What makes you assume that it is, or should be?
Of course someone who exploits workers to stay rich wants to ensure the minimum wage is as low as possible
Yep
WoooHoooo!!! This roller-coaster is INSANE!!!! 🎢
It's clearly their lying about low unemployment rate. Seem like all my neighbors either the wife or husband have been laid off in last 4 months.
If you listen to the Fed chair meetings, they have been basically saying they want the job market to have higher unemployment for several months now. It’s still at an all-time high in terms of job, market, participation.
"It's clearly their (...) last 4 months."
Unemployment is not the same as joblessness. There are different definitions.
Wait, the video i saw wasn't satire or 1 crazy lady saying $50 an hour minimum wage? Holy crap that's insane and not feasible at all!!!!!!
Yup that's the video... I thought it was just nuts and thought nothing of it
oh no!!!!!! A person with an opinion of an opinion!!!!!!!!!
