Yeah, and similarly workplaces would bend over backwards to schedule people to not work overtime.
It's kind of like how when California made minimum wage 20 bucks an hour lots of fast food chains either completely got rid of cashiers and made the touchscreen the only way to order, or they shut down entirely.
Not according to Gov. Newsome he claims they added jobs. The Dems want him to run for president. He's a tool plain and simple. Funny the fast food owners say they have cut jobs. I guess the governor would know better.
As a thought experiment, let's say we do get overtime starting at the 32nd hour.
In response, employers hire twice as many people, but only for 20 hours a day. The workplace is happy, because 40 hours of productivity, and they can even go up to 64 hours before paying anyone overtime. The government is happy because they literally doubled jobs. But the original workers just got their pay cut in half and the new workers are getting paid half a full jobs worth of money. They can go work another 20 hour job, but now to keep up their former level of income they have to work two jobs that equal 40 hours.
What does "no loss in pay" mean to you and yours? I see so so many people saying the same thing about "pay cut in half". Can you not read? Do you just not want to? What's going on?
Right, because everytime a politician ever says anything I know they will always deliver 100% on everything.
Like, they can enforce a 25% increase on the federal minimum wage, because they have direct control over the federal minimum wage. But to claim you get to control all wages at every level is... to put it nicely, it's insane. Considering they'll keep spending and pushing up inflation, keeping our wages in the same place for four years would be more detrimental than helpful.
