Never ever even remotely intimated the sky was falling. In fact my exact words were "it's great Phoenix is experiencing wage growth"....Just pointing out the obvious...that raising minimum wage hurts the economy and hurts those who were earning it because some of 'em are going to get laid off when business get more efficient with kiosks, etc. There's a McD's in my town that's all kiosks. Hey, maybe they can pay the kiosks min wage!

With future no labor cost, they should be then willing to lower prices

Hey, your best idea yet! Profits according to supply and demand and lower prices for me!

I feel Phoenix is the best place as far as COL and salaries. Even though it is rising. It's nothing compared to the other popular US cities. My issue is the jobs out here not telling the truth about the positions. It's like they love your resume, but don't tell you the whole position details and the culture of the company.

That is great to hear, especially since I keep hearing the entitled types complaining about not being handed good pay and wages, they should certainly be benefitting from others hard work with this news.
