If California Democrats cared as much about cutting costs for residents as they did about controlling each and every industry in the state, maybe the state wouldn’t be bleeding residents, writes ZacharyFaria.

The California Legislature passed a bill that would create a council to dictate wages and working conditions for fast-food workers. The council could set a minimum wage for fast-food workers as high as $22 an hour and will annually change the minimum wage to match the cost of living beyond that. The council will last for six years but can be reconvened at any time in the future, effectively making it permanent.

Democratic politicians also recently reaffirmed their desire to control what kind of cars are sold. It isn’t just industry-altering changes these politicians want either. Some politicians have repeatedly brought forward a bill that would dictate how department stores lay out toys because the interior design of department stores is something that officials in the largest state in the country should be concerned about right now.

On top of that, we have this from the New York Times: “David Weil, who under President Barack Obama oversaw the agency that enforces the federal minimum wage, said that … the new council could benefit a broad swath of workers even without additional funding. For example, he said, raising the minimum wage for fast-food workers could increase wages for workers in other sectors, like retail, that compete with fast-food restaurants for labor.

California State Senate passes fast food worker rights billThe California State Senate passed Assembly Bill 257, aimed at regulating the fast food industry. More Gov overreach ! When I worked at a burger joint, we had all the rights we needed, nothing more! If my manager kissed me (yes, it happened, sorry millennials) I kissed him back. It made things smoother for both of us! Dumb, it’s a point to protect the employees, but when it comes to wages, fast food jobs weren’t supposed to be full on careers. This bill is going to close a lot of restaurants and then that equals to fewer jobs. Unions don’t care about the people they care about themselves
