If an EMT makes less than a fast food worker, there's a huge problem. FGN
EMT is an entry level job as well, My nephew started as an EMT while in college and that 2 years experience plus his degree got him a job at a fire deptartment (that also provides EMT services) earning over $100,000 per year as soon as he finished his education.
Now that's scary to even think about....even scarier to witness.
@@howardmarkert8150Fast food is an entry level job as well.
@@G-Man-kc2nm Yes, and this means that because fast food wages have gone up, EMT starting wages will also go up eventually in order to fill the much needed job vacancies. Supply and demand work in the labor market just like in any other semi free market.
Except flipping burgers and making split second decisions on a variety of diagnoses is exactly the same skill level right?
How screwed are we! Biden at the fed level and Newsom at the state level.
Flippy gonna sp4nk you 😩
You are so right. All of our problems from the past 100 yrs started the moment Buden was voted in. 😒
By the way, f*** Biden, but don't be ignorant. Both sides suck and only care about money and ego. Wake up
The people of California voted him in, this must be what they wanted. My suggestion is to consider you voting pattern and VOTE DIFFERENTLY! Vote for conservatives. Throw out the tax and spend liberals. And if you say your vote doesn't matter, I'm only one person OR ANY OTHER EXCUSE then you disserve what you get, but please, whatever you do, don't move to Florida, Texas or Tennessee because we don't want your brand of crazy.
I just moved out of Cali. it's un fixable at this point. Watch Escape from LA it's an old film but a prediction of where the state is going. 😢
@@Tahetse Just don't go to another state and keep voting blue ...... that is what caused that mess.
If you’re spending $50 on fast food for two, you better learn how to cook.
Another good reason to avoid these toxic food factories, they've always been poor value anyway. I go maybe thrice per yr and always surprised how bad they are.
I will spend 100$ on fast food I don’t care
@@killer12545I agree with you spending money on fast food is simply a treat to yourself an your family/ friends ❤ plus after my wife got pregnant I'd buy it every day so I'm used to it.
A professors response is that it’s good for fast food restaurants to start using machines, crazy.
That would be awesome! Can you imagine a food establishment that will finally become sanitary, no more unclean practices that habitually take place in these food joints, no more dealing with lousy customer service. Really, a blessing in disguise.
He was half tongue in cheek but the robots are coming anyway. The sad part is many jobs just aren't worth that much, so they won't exist, they were never intended as careers but as entry level jobs.
Impeach Gavin Newsome.
You idiots tried that already and failed. Just like you fail at everything else.
We did but it wasn’t enough, blue voted more
When he's ready, he'll run for President. Until then he's making sure he looks good to his base.
@@fractal9720 Yeah, Republicans failed. Just like they fail at everything.
yeah ok dude
Dumbest thing I’ve ever witnessed in my life. California is done.
By far, California is the most f'd up state in the union. The battle for 2nd place is between Oregon and Illinois.
Workers have a right to unionize. Decades of low wages and you all are mad employees win. Strange.
@@robertturner1308 Did the "mad employees" win? They're going to have to work harder with less workers and they'll have to worry about their job disappearing.
That doesn't sound like a "win" to me.
@@robertturner1308 Nobody wins. I was a teamster and that was a total waste of money out of my check. Got out in my small window of opportunity.
@@1995texasaggie I was an unrepresented analyst with a masters degree and 9 years of experience. When layoffs came in the Great Recession I was still let go and not rehired as they were not required to rehire us as unrepresented staff. If I was in a union they would have had to layoff a newer employee with less seniority or at least rehire me first when the budget improved as it was not a performance based layoff. I am in a union now and it is money well spent. The only raises we get are what our union fights for. Most people are not in unions but should join them and live better.
CA gov already saying that $20 isn't enough and they want to raise min wage to $50 an hour for everyone. Over 100k a year to flip a burger and burn your fries!?! CA can't fall in the ocean fast enough.
I really don't understand what California thought would happen when they passed this...
Because it's working and $100 an hour will be 5 times better 😂
Feelings over facts.
I work as an EMT for a Fire Department in California.
I make $3 less per hour than a McDonalds employee.
Leaves me scratching my head on why I work as hard and for as many hours as I do if I could be making more doing a much simpler, less stressful, and safer (mentally + physically) job. I'd be making $3 more per hour, and I wouldn't have to worry about telling a wife that her husband is dead beyond resuscitation, and we can't save him. I wouldn't have to cover a corpse with a sheet and try to console her as she desperately grieves for her recently passed.
If you are only getting $17 as an EMT, that tells me that your employer doesn't respect you or what you do.
This $20 hike is only to raise wages in every job in Cali. The cost of living will ski-rocket for everyone. The rich demos can afford it and don't care. The money (taxes) grab by the politicians is grotesgue.
@@suddenlysolo2170 That's the standard in Ca, in other states they get paid even less lol.
Look at it this way, at least you're still gonna have a job, all these fast food workers are going to get laid off.
@@omgstoptakingnamesor work a few hrs a week!
Regrets for not electing Larry Elder everybody would still have a job.
I voted for him
But, but Larry elder is the blackface of white supremacy... -democrats
Agree, people in Cali should push for Larry Elder to run for governor again.
@automotivegarcia1 he stated in a interview on the fallen state that he was done and would not be trying again. People are giving up on Cali, the goophies have taken over.
people vote for people who look or talk the best or lie the best, I don't understand people :( but you get what you get
The most frustrating thing about this for me is I’m a home health care worker that’s taken several medical training and I only get $16 an hour to keep my patient alive. He stays with me and I have a mortgage to pay and he only gets $1,000.00 a month from social security. How is this fair to everyone else. This price hike only went to fast food workers . Absolutely ridiculous that a high school job should make more money then those others trying to get by
Well thats what your employer deems what you are worth don’t like your pay rate find a better employer this is more of you problem.
@@_nimrod92 that’s funny that you assume I have a choice. My patient at the moment is my adult son and I can’t do what I use to do anymore. But I’d love to thank you for your rude and sarcastic words they brighten my day
@@tallouse2146 there was nothing rude about his comment.. just because you feel trapped in life should not be a reason that others should be trapped with you…
@@bman6502 I don’t feel trapped in life and once again another person making assumptions about me. My comment about the wage scale is just an example of how stupid the raise was. But you and the other guy can hangout and make assumptions just like I can make about you
@@tallouse2146no, what you said was “it’s not fair that they earn $20/hr and you only earn $16/hr.” You people always play the victim… because you’re living g in poverty, you think others must also.. why don’t you just say, “good for them, I wish everyone could earn at least $20/hr” stop being a bitter person…
"Can I get two double cheeseburgers and a large Coke, please?"
"Sure, thing. That'll be $49.95. Would you like fries with that order?"
"How fast can you do a credit check?"
Why, five guys have been charging that much for their menu prices long before this wage increase. And people eating there never had the problem of spending that much.
We warned you. This is not sustainable. And will expedite automation.
If they can't give people livable wages then it shouldn't be a business. I won't miss shitty fast food especially if they're exploiting workers
@@EclipsingMomentum People for years have started at these places and moved on to actual careers. Yet, people nowadays can not figure out how to do it but yet its the issue of the business? Sure. Ill buy that I guess.
@@EclipsingMomentum was never meant for a career. High school job, elderly to offset ss disabled, but never designed to be a career
@@1Bohimyme So it was design to pay as little as possible, while making record profits. What an awsome design!
Automation will never survive in restaurants. These businesses will go under and still claim it only costs seven bucks to run them. Lol

That's my plan , I'll never vote for a republitard again...
@imdone1965 then you'll keep getting what we see in this video.
@wilhelmbeaston8003 fine by me , Republicans can KMA...
@@imdone1965 This is so embarrassing. Fast food jobs are for high school kids living in their parents basement not full grown azz adults supporting 6 kids with no baby daddy.
@@imdone1965 Ok good, the robot will replace you, or maybe you are rich enough you don't even need to work, so you don't care.
The SAD PART IS, many restaurants workers are getting paid $20 to $25 per hours because they of their 10 to 20 yrs of service; and now the newly non experience workers who’ll be doing the same work of these veteran workers are going to get pay $20/ hr?
Where is justice in here?
Lol..suckers
There is no justice in virtue signaling.
Living expenses are higher now.
Oh nobody saw that coming? It's basic economics, yet the politicians in California.....nah, y'all deserve it.
All Fast food in CA needs to close and let the state fall on its face.
Thats exactly what they want , to ruin the country & pitbsmaller buisinesses out ! Same thing they did during the plan demic. It has nothing to do with min. Wage . Its the agenda. It doesn't effect the wealthy evil elites .
I hope they run off tourism dollars while they are at it.
This is what they want
If all fast-food restaurants closed, California would not fall flat on its face, but I can assure you that there will be less obesity, hypertension, and type 2 diabetes. Why does everyone choose to see the glass half empty rather than it being half full.
Why is no one talking about how Panera Bread is skating off scott-free? The abuse of power here by Newsome is appalling.
UPDATE: Newsom’s office clarified that a legal analysis determined Panera does not fall under the exception because it mixes its dough off-site instead of fully producing bread on the premises of its retail locations.
Panera sends a lot of dough to Newsome, so they're ok. It's all about bribes.
Gavin made an exemption to the new minimum wage laws specifically for businesses that made bread on location before the laws got enacted. He clearly only plans to allow his friend to benefit, while at the same time, block all other businesses from now making bread on location to get the same financial benefit by paying a lower wage.
I hope the scheme backfires when all of the now-underpaid Panera workers go to competitors that pay better, and Panera loses its business for being so shady.
@@oahuhawaii2141 good thing you can make bread easily. EVERYONE SHOULD BE BUYING SMALL COMMERCIAL BREAD OVENS.
Story here on the East Coast is that is because one of his college chums own Panera Bread.
Panera is not exempt. There was a story on the news a few weeks ago that they will be paying the $20 per hour. But stating this fact doesn’t serve your political agenda, does it?
I've never seen someone so excited about folks losing their jobs. I feel like something greater is going on here. This feels like a way to diminish competition with small businesses that serve alternative quality food. We say we won't buy costly fast food, but grocery store prices aren't looking so great either. "Inflation" is a synonym for greed by corporations as they are buying into everything and drastically changing the landscape for only their benefit.
YUPE THE WAGE HIKE IS CAUSING THE CLIMATE TO CHANGE. CAUSING THE WAR IN RUSSIA AND ISRAEL IS CAUSING THE HOMELLESS AND HOUSING SHORTAGE CAUSING OUR HEALTHCARE CRISIS. IS TURNING EVERYBODY GAY..CAUSING SOLAR ECLIPSES.
It is both shocking and a little scary how so many people lack an understanding of basic economics.
Seriously! They're working against their own interests.. lol
This would be the best time to learn to cook at home
I live in a minivan. No kitchen. No refrigeration. No water.
I'm still eating out lol
Takes a lot more time to cook at home.

Hundreds of thousands of people now unemployed. Take that last check and buy a tent. You will be joining the ranks of the rest of California residents on the street homeless.
No they aren't you dumbass.
there are more homeless than cops. let that sink in.
But I love the Democratic Party….
Hahahaha
pretty much u are correct cali is the worst place to live filled with leftist wing idiots who are lost as can be and have zero ideas how to grow there state.i wish nothing but the best but there best has lost and left there state for good.10 years from now this state will be filled with just none legal people and homeless with be 99 percent because they super rich will leave and there will be no such thing as movie stars living there anymore there leave the country or move to a better affordable state.
With what pays are today, that's happening anyway....
Why don't these owners turn their businesses into a partial bakery. That way they bypass that stupid law.
Recall Newsom again and vote these democrats out of office.
You get rid of Trump and I’ll vote republican for the rest of my life.
Pro tip… DONT eat out
So how does that help those workers?

@@user-ek5nl1jc4b naw not eating and learning to grocery shop and cook teaches independence. If u depend on a politician, u r a big loser
@@AI_Taylor"you should have studied harder in high school". There are people with college degrees who STILL have difficulty finding jobs in the field they studied for. I bet you really thought you sounded clever with that idiotic response.
Back in the day when minimum wage was $5/hr we paid our rent and bills and still had money left over. Corporations are greedy
BS. I know how it was back then.
Hey California? Hate your representatives yet? Rent goes up, taxes go up $17 BK burgers? Y’all are crazy.
This is what happens when we elect politicians who have no economics or accounting knowledge. And they wonder why people and businesses are leaving California?
This is what happens when feelings result in politically motivated mandates.
Be honest, all of these people are circle jerking each other. Regular people don’t go to the same schools these people matriculate from. They are grandfathered in and they don’t know anything, much alone care.
We need to stop lobbying.
Nol.. the problem isn't
politician.. it's the voters who have turned my home state into a shit hole.
too many transplants like yourself here. Please go home and take friends and family with you. You will not be missed believe me
they want more tax revenue, they do not care about these workers.
A 25 % increase in wages equals a 75 % loss in business .
LOSS= 100% - I WoNT BE eating out !
Roll out the robot burger flippers.
😂u rite
Do you have any credible source for this stat you claim to be true with such authority? Hmmm -- didn't think so. :(
@@user-pp2ze4yq3m do you?nope just a woke tard
This hits small businesses far more than big ones. Margins are tight in food service and $4 an hour can kill the business.
Wouldn't it be ironic if this stupid law ended up solving obesity in CA lol ....
I don't get it. Did these politicians actually think this would work? What's the point of a pay-raise if the employee will be terminated or hours drastically cut?
Of course they did silly! you think Newson and his political buddies actually cooks for themselves??
They go servants for that. Most likely from across the Southern Border.............
The people who voted for this didn't think it through
Democrats don’t think it through. Democrats don’t analyze problems. That’s why Democratic run states are falling apart.
If I'm paying 15 to 20 dollars for burger fries not going to fast food any more I'm definitely going to Texas Roadhouse House or Golden Corral for that kind of price 🤷🤷🤷
The more you make, the more they take. 🎶🎵 They call me the tax man🎶🎵🔉🔉
$20 for fast food workers? That's more than I ever made as a teacher in California.
$20 per hour fast food workers will equal $20 per meal fast food. Remember when fast food workers made $5-7 per hour back in the 90s? The meals cost $5-7 back then.
Life always gets better when big brother government meddles.
Maybe Newsom will notice if, all fast food shuts down, because they have no customers.
Newsom could care less about the average person.
Yea right, you obviously voted him back in on the recall. He don't care about you.
Newsome doesn't care he eats at fancy French restaurants.
If he knows what he is doing, he wouldn't do this in the first place.
@@cherub0nyx yes, inflecting new pain to Californians,Newsom is a Rat
Avoid fast food. Make your own food. That's what I do.
No choice now
Your the problem
Good for you but the employees are out of a job soon.
@@automotivegarcia1 You are perfectly welcome to pay the bill. Not me.
@@andrewadam1890 So? Not my problem.
My job at at Cenex as a master tire technician, 18.50 an hour making 1100.00 a week after taxes and insurance. Got a raise to 20.00 an hr take home dropped to 850.00 take home after taxes and insurance, didn't gain a friggin thing . Got another job at 18.50 an hr part time working 3 days a week take home 500.00 a week couldn't be happier!
The minimum wage is $0 as the terminated workers would soon find out.
Now if only the News in California would report on how badly Newsome is doing as Governor.
That’s truth that’s not allowed 😢
My girlfriend wants to quit selling perfume at Macy's and start flipping burgers at Wendy's.
Don't blame her, but there's going to be stiff competition from the middle aged people fighting for these now career jobs & those forced out of retirement needing more income. Best of luck to the youth getting forced out here 👍
To get around the $20 minimum just call your restaurant a hospital and hire nurses for $15 to do the jobs.
Your girl needs career aspirations
I'll give you a girlfriend 20 bucks if she does something for me
She will have to actually WORK at Wendy's.
As a fast food worker, I am now at $20 an hour. But the irony here is that I am making way less now. Why? Because any business that has to pay $20 an hour has slashed employee hours to part time. At $16.50 an hour, I was getting 6 to 8 hour shifts. At $20 an hour, I am only getting 4 hour shifts and somedays, only 3 hours. So I have taken a significant pay cut. And with California auto insurance having just gone up 33%, and rents that just keep going up and up, I don't know how I am going to survive. Thank You Governor Gruesome.
Less staff working harder for their money. If the staff wants a 25% increase, business owners should get 25% more work from staff. And layoffs to keep weekly wage costs constant.
Good job Gavin and those who “celebrated” him signing this months ago. You people know nothing but your own feelings.
French Laundry pays more than $20 per hour
@@nolanchen1876Do they? Do you really think Newsom pays well🤔
@nolanchen1876: The French Laundry is a very high-end restaurant that charges over $300 for its standard prix fixe meal. Its typical customer can afford to pay the high price for the meal. The chefs at The French Laundry are highly trained, highly skilled, and under the high pressure of exacting work for long hours; accordingly, they deserve the much higher pay. Since the restaurant already pays more than $20/hr, it won't need to raise its wages under this law.
I ate there once, a very long time ago, when the prix fixe dinner was "only" $100, plus $15 for the supplement to upgrade with beluga sturgeon caviar and pâté de foie gras courses. A friend brought 4 different bottles of wines from his personal collection, but the maître d' limited us to the chard and the cab, which weren't on the overpriced wine list, and then charged us $100 for corkage fee. Our waiter screwed up by not getting us a decanter, despite us requesting one from the start of service and after each course, until he finally listened when our filet mignon was served. We had to wait for our red to air; as our steaks were getting cold, we decided to eat them first, and drink our aired wine when the rabbit course came up next. Our friend had gristle on the side of his filet, and he also complained that his lobster claw had a bit of shell embedded in it, and our waiter let our water glasses go empty and still did nothing until we repeatedly asked for water. Two strikes each for our maître d', chef, and waiter.
Vote Newsome out
Not going to happen as long as he continues to get big money from all his "special" friends down South in exchange for them getting sweetheart deals..........................
Vote Nuisance out.

The more you make an hour the more you have to pay in taxes
I am cooking at home. I much prefer paying myself $20 an hour over some entitled stranger that has convinced themselves that they can mandate a raise at the (stuffed) ballot box.
now consumers will have to pay a premium because of this, just stay at home and cook your own food
I always cook at home. Fast food is unhealthy.
we are. i barely even eat out anymore. if i do; its because of a coupon or something really cheap.
This addresses the customers, but without a job, the ex-employees can't afford to make dinner at home or keep a home. Within a month, the homeless population is going to explode. Oh, wait, the illegals can fill in the slots at lower pay if they aren't required to show citizenship, pay taxes, get immunizations, or follow any other laws. So there is a plan.
It’s more than just eating out it provides jobs to the community
If you stay at home. Bussiesses start to close down. And MCD will just buy a robot. That's why if you eat out choose small cause their the only one who will actually care about their workers
IM CA. 🇺🇸 please everyone WALK TO VOTE BOTH. VOTE RED. Please save ca! Why NEWSOM killing CA?! :,,,(
Do some research on how much money people made for work before feminism was popular. In 1945 a person working at McDonald's would make .45 cents an hour. A family house in LA would cost $4,300. Today that would be akin to making $100 an hour minimum wage and a family house costing $150,000 in LA. That's why people back in the 1940's were having 4+ kids and living well. Today you're might be able to afford a bedroom on a McDonald's job. Corporations, banks and politicians are responsible for this happening in the USA.
I worked as a field tech fixing robotic pharmaceutical units. They work great until they don't. A burger flipper that stops working needs a human to replace it until a Field Tech comes to fix it. That guy said that the Flippy cost $7/hr to run but how much does it cost the owner when it is NOT running.
Researcher's haven't said anything about the Lazy Good for nothing Workers & the Terrible Food that these places have. BETTER FOOD, BETTER SERVICE= MORE CUSTOMERS
I thought fast food was expensive a few YEARS ago (last time I went). So now it’ll be even MORE expensive?!? ….FORGET IT!! 🤔🤷🏼♂️👎🏻
I never paid much attention until McDonald's raised the price of 99 cent double cheeseburgers. Cut one slice of cheese and called it Mcdouble. Arrrg... Then they raised the price. Dang it...Then I looked at the confusing collage of a menu and saw the prices of individual sandwiches. SONOFABITCH!!!

The automation suggestion is just brilliant! Truly a brilliant solution. Lets extrapolate this idea of widespread automation of labor jobs: Step 1: People buy goods and services with money from their jobs.Step 2: automated machines replace workers who then lose their jobs. Step 3: No one is left to buy goods and services, because they have no money, because they have lost their jobs. BRILLIANT!
You don't know how many times me and my wife tossed that scenario around while having a few drinks.
Sounds like it came down from Joe Biden himself 😂
You forgot one thing Newson will start collecting those income taxes from those machines when he mandates a wage for those machines. So as far as he's concern he still gets 'moe mony' :)
I’m sure some task can’t be replaced and there will always be people with money. It’s more likely that those that get replaced by robots will end up in government assistance.
My post is not actually in favor of automation, it points out why its not an a real solution to wage increases.This bullshit news story presents it as if it is a good solution. Also, working class people are BOTH the workers and main consumers of fast food businesses. "People with money" don't eat there very often, they buy Whole Foods.@@SleepyNeo
This has caused a lot of people to get laid off and the workers lost hours. They aren't making any more money than they were before

I don't eat out anymore. When it costs $8.00 for a big mac and they still can't get it right and the amount of meat in it is the size of a silver dollar.
This increase will actually cause more harm than good for all. Longer wait times, understaffed restaurants, stressed employees, and in comes robots to replace 1-3 but eventually all employees.
yeah - its california remember , 'customers. will just steal, and any robots instantly vandalised, customer service from behind bulletproof glass..

Bring on the automation. It is probably faster than the workers. I already use order kiosk when they are available, because it is faster, and saves the company money.
THIS KILLS OFF THE MOST IMPORTANT FIRST TEENAGE JOBS. ITS MORE IMPORTANT TO GET THOSE FIRST JOBS THAN HOW MUCH YOU EARN.
I've NO sympathy for these workers. They wanted the higher wage, so now they can live with the consequences. Did they actually think their wages could go up without everything else costing more? Get real!
i agree with you, but you really can't fault people for wanting to get a higher hourly wage, the blame falls on the politicians who approved this crap, they could have remedied the situation in a better way.
No because they don’t think. Liberals don’t use common sense. They see higher wage and vote yes
The government cant manage a budget much less give information on how to do business. Let the market will take care of itself, and get rid of some of these restriction to help small businesses expand to bring some of these prices down and give consumers more choice.

I cook at home for $70 a week thank you for raising the prices so much they made me start cooking at home now I’m eating for less than $400 a month really appreciate it. I’m saving 4 to 6 grand a year now.
Me too. I used to be able to afford to eat out 5 to 7 times a week. Now I am down to 2 times per week.
On the positive side, I am eating healthier now.
400 a month? I can do 100

Nobody in that state is smart enough to question what’s going on until after they voted for it and after the policy is in effect. Media included.
What I got out of this, is there’s just one more reason to hate California, as if there weren’t enough reasons already!
Homemade food it is. Healthier as well. Win win
True, yet the price of food at groceries is outrageous already!!

Did you see the Asian guy. It's a fn family business. Are you retarded?
a 40 hour week comes to $800, plus payroll taxes on the employer, insurance, etc. That's $41,600/year for a low skill job not even requiring a (worthless) HS education. Six employees would be almost a quarter of a million. How does a business afford this? How could they pass on this cost to their customers (even if they made $800/week). Do you see anything wrong here? Like telling an employer how to run his/her business? The CA gov and the legislature are out of their mind. Or maybe they want total government dependence for everyone?
True I guess they want all their profits for them
Don't forget that the big chains like McDonalds, Burger King, Wendy's, Taco Bell and such the franchizee pays unbelievable amounts to the parent just to able to sell those foods.
Sounds like a broken system where workers at the bottom get the shit end of a stick, heres a word for you.. its called sustainable.@@chulee846
Most are part time , only the managers are full time...
However those employees won't get 40 hours..20 per week the most..and everyone will be paying more for everything..
Upside 😂 automate and fire humans yall so dim in your thinking .
I went to college, got a degree, took state mandated testing to get a job starting at 12 something an hour in 2014. Worked my butt off for 10 years to make what I make now. 20$ an hour minimum wage is crazy.
I know how you feel
AVOID...avoid..avoid. See a McDonalds. Drive on by!
Unfortunately “fast food places“ doesn’t just include McDonald. They also include the burger truck that the black single mom run to make money to raise her kids.
You can’t shut down the mega corp with the minimum wages, but you will shut down the Mom and Pop stores and put people on the streets.
I assume that’s what you want, right? Congratulations for getting your wishes 🎉🎉🎉
Why do you want to punish McDonald's franchisees for California's mismanagement?
More jobs lost and taxation lol 😂
Haiku!
and lose weight and save money.....
R.I.P. McDonalds. More robotics = less taxable work force = less tax revenue = higher taxes

Are the restaurants that install the automated machines, going to reduce their prices?
HELL NO THEY WON'T!
Depends. If no one is going there because of the pricing I bet you would see the pricing drop some. But if people are still stupid enough to buy a burger, fries, and a drink for $20.00 then heck no they aren't going to drop the pricing because they are a business and they are trying to make profit.
boycott the automated restaurants, make the investors in automation lose their money.
@@xq39 I will frequent them to show my disdain for the ridiculous fast food worker wages.
Paying $20.00/hr to say "You want fries with that?" is absolutely insane! Only the lib eral law makers can make a bad situation WORSE!!! It was already bad enough at $12.50/hr and then Kalifornia jacked it up to $15.00/hr. Layoffs and closures will be hitting many restaurants!
Good
because god forbid someone get a wage that still can't support a person
I get you're exaggerating.....
@@_Kona__ Dude is mad that people are being paid a livable wage 😂
Let me teach you something about economics. When I worked fast food I would make a $1000 dollars worth of sales while maybe getting $80 dollars after tax for the day. I get the business owner takes on risk and everything but the employee who made that $1000 should be making more than 8% of the sales that they made and economically speaking labor can take up to 25% and still have the numbers work out. Employees and employers are supposed to negotiate but every place I worked would just pay the minimum wage. As such in lieu of lack of negotiations wage gains have to be made somewhere and that has been done via legislation for the past 10 years. Without this type of legislation the minimum wage would still be $7.25 an hour and McDonald's would still be expensive this is evident as markets with no raise in minimum wage have also seen a disproportionate amount of price increases.
Pay the workers more equals more taxes paid to the government, and after all we all work for the government
I'm quitting my dental assistant job and working fast food.
eventually these fast food wages will force other wages up making this a much large problem.
@Glovemanification no it won't, bc bosses will say I can't afford these new prices, cost, so I'm gonna cut hours or lay off so somebody
@@raymondlin8728 actually other wages and prices will probably increase like they always have.
@David-rx5eo I have worked at diners before, so at least they let u take home some food at the end of the day if they're gonna throw it out anyway. That's a free dinner and or breakfast right there. In a dental office, nothing. Maybe some toothbrush and floss. Lol
@@raymondlin8728 OK, but the has nothing to do with my comment about other wages will increase. Also, a lot of diners will not let the employees take food. You were lucky. Good for you.
My career was a high paying job, but before I got to that point I did work in several minimum wage jobs, some of which were jobs a lot of people would not do.
Where are the groups of people who were standing with the governor cheering , saying we did this? Are they now in the unemployment line? Who is going to pay almost 20 dollars for a fast food hamburger, nobody!
Many businesses will close down . Customers will not pay outrageous prices for that quality of food . This betrays all common sense .
No, only big corporations has to pay their employees 20%. Listen sir, these companies are making billions and you act like a couple more bucks are gonna drain them. They have enough money now through the unchecked corporate greed and by raising prices beyond people’s means.
Franchisees are also run by small business owners. The man they are interviewing is not big corporation. He is a small business owner running under a franchise. If he loses his business he loses his source of income to support his family.
@@alxtan1 that means there is not enough demand to keep his business going. It’s tough but reality, capitalism only benefits those who provides something to the economy. So tough luck man
You can’t force revenue by underpaying employees. If that’s the case, than that means that the area is simply not making enough money. It’s just business. Many like him didn’t even get to the point of supporting themselves like he has for that long.
The good thing is now with more automation, we can feel less bad since there won’t be a human there watching you press “no” for a tip 😂
I am an independent contractor, so I have no W2 wages and earn my money based entirely on performance while paying for most of my own expenses. If I don't close deals, I lose money.
The big corporations can handle this but the little businesses would suffer.

What do you expect. Having 15 employees X $20/hr is now $2400 a day just for an 8hr shift is 72k/month. keep in mind that has to come out of profit hoping people will still eat here now. What do you do that you can toss 72k/month at?. Then add the mandatory health insurance, business taxes, mortgage or rent of at least $7k/mo. These aren't the kind of businesses that have profits oozing out of their pockets. The company is lucky to make a 10% margin for profit. Thats how tight restaurants operate just to stay afloat.
The biggest problem is housing.. the rental industry is out of control.. and we need rent price control.. also these real estate companies are out of control they keep pushing the prices up
It not only has an impact on $8/hr workers. Now you have to pay the employees that were making $15-$20/hr more money. This is going to kill a lot of jobs for college students

As a shareholder I am outraged that we still have human employees.
Literally no reason to eat out anymore. Make a big dinner at home and have leftovers for the next day's lunch. No reason to pay these inflated prices as well as guilted into tipping when they provide no service that warrants a tip. Totally out of hand. I feel sorry for these business owners having to pay an arbitrary 25% increase for a job that requires no skill whatsoever.
and some restaurant enforced us to give them tip .. delivery tip is ok. Since this tip issue I start to cook more often , is healthy and not to expensice.
