Reply To: question for democrats (and i guess anyone else that wants to chime in)

ubiquitin,

see my comment to joe, i understand the laws of supply and demand apply here (as with most other places) however if all restaurants have to pay more money for the labor ($15 dollars an hour!) they would have to charge more to the customer and if they can’t find a medium they go kaput and welcome to higher unemployment

additionally, if the price of burgers go up (because people have more money to spend on them as you say) then there is inflation where the burger is anyway the same percentage of a persons hourly wage
