- white-flame 11y agoHas the size of the minimum wage worker pool decreased as well? That area is pushing out the non-high-income.

What happens when the Dairy Queen in Fresno is required to pay the local teenagers $15 an hour, or around $30K a year, to sell ice-cream cones? My guess is that there's going to be one less Dairy Queen in California and those teenagers will be out of a job.
