I predict rapid inflation as prices go up on goods and services to pay higher wages. Workers making more than $15 before will now be demanding raises to keep their position on the pay scale. Many workers will be laid off as employers cut back due to labor cost.
But we'll see...
Too old to live...too young to die...
The blank look I got was fun to see. It must be really fun to be a liberal democrat. Reality doesn't apply, common sense isn't necessary, and they can hear the ocean in their heads without using a seashell. [;)][:D]
lost in Space.
The experiment is on. Let's see what a $15 minimum wage will do to the economy.

The federal minimum wage was raised to $7.25 per hour back in July 2009 and has not been raised since. In those 7 years prices for everything from food to housing has went up. And yet the minimum wage stayed the same...
Rapid inflation if it happens will only be an excuse for companies to raise the price for their goods or services..
Something to think about.. 98% of the shoes sold in the US are foreign made... I would like to see NIKE argue the fact that due to having to pay it's employees $15 an hour they must raise their prices in order to stay in business. Then what about all of those company goods that "use to be made in the US" sold in Walmart and everywhere else? How will a minimum wage of $15 an hour justify them raising their prices?

The Gub has no business setting wages in the first place.
Problem will be that no one will be able to afford to eat at Burger King.
Yeah, but for the ones employed there, they'll still be demanding $15/hr.
I wouldn't be surprised if the gub'ment started subsidising min wage to keep places open. [xx(]

Yeah, right.
Where are they going to get the money to do that?
Oh wait, nevermind.
The legislation in Oregon is going to be fun to watch, Steve. I asked one of the local legislators how they figured the different wage rates in different areas was going to pass legal muster when challenged for the obvious violation of the Equal Protection clause of both the US and Oregon Constitutions.

You Swedes sure have an odd sense of what 'fun' is!
My idea of fun will be seeing the Oregon border in the rear view mirror when I can retire and get out of this liberal poopity hole in a few years!
