The problem with the restaurant industry will resolve itself. Fast food restaurants will automate and the small businesses will be weeded out. Only the best will survive and will price out all but the upper middle class. The upscale restaurant will suffer but not nearly as much. More people will start cooking/eating at home again and will be better off for it. My advice to fast food restaurant workers is to learn a trade. Because while you will see 15 dollars an hour, it wont last long. The grocery store chains went through this in the 70s and 80s. Finally, if you're living in a large city and trying to earn a living in the fast food industry. Your wasting your time. Get out and look for new opportunities

Isn't this basic enonomics? When the wage goes up, inflation HAS to happen to keep things balanced. Ultimately the customers pay the employees, so yes, if you want a higher wage, you will see higher prices because at the end of the day, businesses need to make enough to stay open, or else decrease people's hours, they lay off a few people, and/or close down a few places if not entirely. Remember: they need to stay afloat. If you keep adding weight, you'll eventually sink the boat.

If min wage had kept up with inflation it would be a lot more than 15$ almost 20$. But if min wage increases every year, over time, at an expected amount, then businesses can adjust for it. Used to a person could raise a family of 3 kids, and care for a wife on a simple job. You cannot do that anymore, min wage is 13k take home pay.

I was for the $15 Minimum Wage, but I'm not oblivious to the evidence; you guys were right. The effect of the increase in the minimum wage has meant there are; 1) Fewer services jobs; both as more services are automated, reduced, and wiped out entirely by closure. 2) Fewer manufacturing jobs; as these get sent overseas at higher rates. 3) A year-on-year decrease in the total salaries paid to employees as a whole. 4) Fewer opportunities for low-skilled workers to earn money. 5) More unemployment at the lowest level for the poorest and least educated people. 6) A year-on-year decrease in the number of restaurants and cafes; there is a high turnover in this industry but there is an actual decline for the first time since the 1920s. And one often underreported problem; 7) Fewer opportunities for people to start and scale their small businesses, as the cost of employing someone is too great. The evidence is in. The massive minimum wage hike has decimated this industry, and decimated the job opportunities. What's more, the instability caused by the ever-looming threat of more government price hikes has compounded the problem.

It makes the dollar weaker, the $15 will have the purchasing power of $5 in 2010.

The fast food restaurants in Dallas have kiosks that take cards. You want to pay in cash or speak to a person go through the drive thru

People are not taking inflation into account. In the late 70's wages were $5.25. That equates today to about $25. At that time a fast food lunch was under $1. Today that same lunch is over $6. Then you could eat lunch five days for an hour's work. Today you can eat twice.

This guy is so delirious 😂😂.

I'm wondering if it is viable to have annual wage increases based on the percentage of profit increases of a business establishment. Like if a company's profit increases by X percent on a particular year, then the salaries of the employees will also increase by Y percent. But also, if the profit of a company decreases by X percent, the salaries of the employees will also decrease by Y percent.

I've been out of a job for long time based lack of communication between co-workers and management in charge

This why he loses restaurants

What part of the formula don't people understand, Entry level employee is statistically zero experience/ minimal skill and zero debt, minimum wage is appropriate and satisfactory as most are still living at home, usually when you start in the workforce you need someone to give you the opportunity to prove yourself and pay you, then as you gain skill and prove yourself dependable, trustworthy etc etc ( and God knows those qualities are not as common as you would like or might think) your wage rate may increase until your expand your horizons and employment future and move up, or on, even as an apprentice you are learning a skill and getting a portion of a tradesman's rate, and as time goes on you gain more skill more experience so your worth increases and your potential hourly rate, so if you dont get the start then you don't get to move up or on, pretty simple but if you choose not to move up or on then don't expect your rate to, pretty simple again

I found that it is nearly impossible to have an intelligent conversation about basic economic principals with people who don't understand supply and demand. If you raise overhead, whether it is fixed or variable, someone has to pay for it. When you raise wages the customers pay for it, the business pays for it, and the govt pays for it. When customers don't want to pay more for food and service, employees become unemployed and businesses move or close down.it is much more complex than that but people must understand that businesses can't print money to pay for increased wages. I can't feel sorry for people who stay in low paying jobs and don't educate themselves. Instead they expect to be paid more than their services are worth. Well, kiss your jobs goodbye.

To be honest, $20+ is a living wage. Restaurants need to be subsidized by the government at this point.

The sad part is that the businesses that get hit the hardest and end up closing are the small businesses, the mom & pop shops. Same thing with crushing regulations. The same people who are supposed to be fighting big corps so they don't take over and push everyone else out of business are the same people fighting for laws that help big corps and hurt small businesses.

He's absolutely right! Minimum wage is for low skill, low educated entry level people meant as a stepping stone to acquire valuable skills to be able to command better wages in better jobs in the future. Don't like earning so little? Fine. Go get skills and education that employers want for the higher paying jobs! It's the employee's responsibility to bring value to the employer. The more value (skills, experience) the higher the wage. It's simple economics people...!

Sounds like a reporter that doesn't listen, prejudges, arrogant yah .truthful yes every time minimum wage goes up 6 months so does the cost of living the service worker who wants to take her kids out to eat won't be able to afford it. Simple

We had inflation every year. Before 2020, We had between a 1-3% inflation each year, and those wages are supposed to go up with it as well. Not stay the same. And also here in the south, where most of these states have a $7.25 minimum wage, we are suffering from it the worst than anyone else in this country.

Hes got to keep those six houses and 20 cars going lol

Go Trump!

People seem to forget that when a business doesn't make a profit, it'll make a loss. The employees don't risk a single penny; rather, they can get another job if the business closes, whilst they've been taking a salary from a losing business. A business owner can find himself a million dollars in the hole after a year, and even go bankrupt. That's why they take profits; the employee risks nothing when a restaurant goes under. The owners lose everything.

wow hes gonna keep firing his workers because he wants to make money when he owns SO MANY places already. You're workers make the business RUN. Having as you say " teenagers work the minimum wage" there they would be gone within 2 years and your buyers won't have that special bond. It's hard work but this guy knows nothing of the working poor.

Companies are not charities. If you don't like your wage or other conditions, quit. If you want to make more money find a better job that will pay you according to the value you bring to the company. Minimum wage jobs usually require no skills and for better or for worse, people who earn those wages can be easily replaced.

You don’t understand economics. The money loses value, $15 will have the same power as $5 with inflation. You can’t just print money, an entry level at 15 means that the more qualified will also be paid more, the product will cost more etc etc In short it devalues the dollar.

90% of most restaurants fail so I would say he deserves every dollar he makes. He is in the business to make himself money not make money for other people. Maybe the workers need to learn a skill and get a better paying job. There was a story about a Walmart work that wasn't making $15 an hour after 15 years. Why is she still working there after 15 years. Learn a skill and go make more money not wait for a company to just give you more. When my coffee is made wrong or my food order is all wrong are they worth $15 an hour.I don't think so.

it isn't a small increase. they were doing like 1-1.50 an hour each year. that's ridic. and just like in seattle. people r losing jobs because of it. especially the food industry. and a lot r being replaced entirely by machines. remember the grocery store strike. then they came out with the self help line. now the grocery workers don't strike anymore. because if they do. they all will be fired and replaced with machines.

If people expect to be paid more they need to learn marketable skills and earn the higher wage. Another thing, we live in a capitalistic society. If they aren't being paid enough they can move to another country where they will soon find out that Socialism doesn't work. Self entitled lazy people have already dragged the world down, we don't need any more of them.

Sadly this man is correct. Not about Trump, but about the rest. A lot of business that can exist with workers making $9.5 an hour can’t exist with workers making $15. It’s a fact. Some are already just getting by. For some the only move is to shut the door.
