I am convinced that $15 minimum wage is a disaster for cities that
adopt them, because it will decimate low income communities through
unemployment and crime.

I am very interested in what happend to Los Angeles a few years after
their new minimum wage goes into effect.

Generally, robots will replace low income people anywhere, but not as
fast as where a high minimum wage is adopted.

After all, a robot can flip burgers pretty well!

i

And very precisely , every burger exactly 1.456 miuntes per side .


The robot also does not complain, and does not need health insurance.

And robots don't pay taxes either....

About 46% of the U.S. National Revenue comes from personal income tax
while 32% comes from payroll tax, or in other words, some 78% of the
taxes are generated by folks who work.
