This is a local government issue, not a federal one, so I'm not as upset about this as one might think. But a couple points here: 1) Minimum wage has the ability to hurt, as this study clearly shows, so don't believe progressives who tell you otherwise 2) The minimum wage hasn't even reached $15.00 per hour yet (it won't get there until 2021), so imagine the carnage when it does finally get there 3) Good luck ever getting the minimum wage LOWERED once it's been raised That last point is probably the most important. It's never going away in Seattle or anywhere else it's been voted in. This same principle is why Democrats are able to give away "free stuff" so readily. It may hurt them at the polls in the short tem, but they know that eventually the mean old Republicans will come in and try to take it away. And because they're Republicans, they trip over themselves and fall down, lose at the polls, the Democrats give away MORE free stuff, and the next thing you know we're trillions in debt...
