      The group said the costs “simply cannot be absorbed by the business model.”

      They can do business, just not be as profitable if they can’t pay slave wages. The problem here is in the quote… they don’t want to change the model where the franchisee’s earn a little less and their crews can actually afford rent.

      There is nothing “free market” about a forced minimum wage.

      There are lots of arguments to be made for an increased minimum wage, at least try to be smart when making them.

        The irony of you asking for smarts to be considered in regards to a mega billion dollar corp, who can more than afford this change for the entire country, let alone just California, is astounding while you are commenting the stupidest crap about “free markets” in relation to this news. It is hilariously pedantic…

          There is literally nothing incorrect with the statement “enforced minimum wages go against the free market philosophy” and the statement itself makes no claim one way or the other about their personal views. It’s just pointing out a factually incorrect claim. Ironically enough, your paragraph reply is the hilariously pedantic part

                  You are on something.

                  But anyway, back to the conversation. Use your degree in economics (which you clearly have) to explain exactly how state-enforced minimum wages do not directly conflict with the ideas of lassaiz-faire free market economies. Please, be as specific as possible.
