Janet - Stop #FreelanceBusting @webcodepro

Both #AB5 and fast food minimum wage law were written by UNIONS
BOTH bills HARM the very people they are meant to "help"
Tons of independent contractors LOST their incomes because of AB5
Now it's fast food workers turn
California policies show what other states SHOULDN'T do
Janet - Stop #FreelanceBusting @webcodepro
California's #AB5 reduced self-employment AND overall employment by 10% and 4.4% respectively
Now CA fast food employees are getting laid off or losing hours because of new minimum wage law
Would love to see @mercatus examine this CA fiasco too

Dollars are not what drives an economy, value is. These workers are providing WAY less than $20 of value per hour which is why consumers aren't paying, causing business to close. It's consumers that determine the price of value, not government.
And at the end of the day a new equilibrium will be established that'll make $20 have the buying power of $10 and low skill workers, who think low skill jobs are something they should be able to make a career out of, will end up even worse off than when they started. Like they have every single time this has happened before.
That's the result every time government puts it's finger on the scale. The lowest end of the economy get the worst impact. But the people in CA have the government they deserve. Suck it up and change how you vote in November. //
