    Absolutely spot-on target, paladin! I couldn't have put it better without going on for about six paragraphs (like I do too often). Well said!

    Jacking-up minimum wage never does ANYTHING of any lasting good at all for the lower class. AND, in this interesting time when artificial intelligence, 'self-help' sales websites, and robotics will rapidly be taking over literally millions of jobs -- especially those involving low skill/low education, the 'reductions-in-force' for the minimum-wage class of worker will be astounding during our own "Roaring Twenties"....

    Done what exactly? What exactly have they done?

    If you are claiming they have divided their state into two different minimum wage zones, could you please provide a link for that?

    They say this trend hasn't been seen before in San Franshetco. Looks like all costs of doing business, crime, undesirables, and the sidewalk shuffle have an effect:

    They aren't hogging MY WEALTH I have my own wealth which I earned good luck with the daydream you will have wealth because government is going to take from someone else and give it to you. What a lazy daydream.

    And yes pharma drug price increases were less this year. Thank you President Trump.
