Maybe you don't realize that manufacturing jobs have been disappearing left and right. We don't export anywhere near what we used to. Free market will adjust itself it left alone, but putting restrictions on businesses and forcing them to pay beyond what makes sense for a job will make them find other ways to get that work done. Outsourcing, or moving to a state where they don't have as high of a minimum wage. Its simple economics, so don't act like the ones saying this are stupid.



Yes you are correct.
Austrailia $16 min wag 5 percent unemployment, San Francisco $10.55 6.5 unemployment rate.
