The California fast food minimum wage law is wreaking havoc on small businesses, and it’s not just about costing jobs—it’s shutting whole operations down! Mmm mmm mmm, looks like Governor Newsom’s own joint is finding clever ways to skirt the rules. It’s no surprise that this liberal policy is backfiring so badly.
Why won’t YOU pay restaurant workers $20 an hour, Gov. Newsom? https://t.co/ikrUoEH0qG pic.twitter.com/7Qs1fBWFNV

You see, this minimum wage law might sound like a good idea to some folks, but when it comes to running a small business, it’s anything but tasty. These mom-and-pop restaurants are getting grilled by the higher labor costs, and now they’re being forced to close up shop. It’s like they’re being served a heaping plate of government overreach with a side of job loss.
And speaking of job loss, it’s not just employees who are getting burned by this ill-conceived law. It’s the whole community that’s feeling the heat. When businesses shut down, it’s not just a few workers who suffer—it’s the entire neighborhood that loses out on valuable services and opportunities. But do you think those liberal politicians care? Nope, they’re just too busy preaching their “fight for $15” rhetoric without considering the real-world consequences.
And what about Governor Newsom’s own little business venture? Seems like he’s found a way to have his cake and eat it too. You know what they say, rules are for the little guys, not for the elites. It’s like they’re trying to sneak their way through the drive-thru while the rest of us are stuck waiting in line.
This whole situation just leaves a bad taste in the mouth. It’s like they’ve ordered up a super-sized portion of government meddling, and the taxpayers are the ones forced to foot the bill. But hey, at least the politicians can pat themselves on the back for “fighting for the little guy,” right? Wrong. It’s time for a reality check, and it starts with serving up some common sense instead of these half-baked policies.
