The $15 per hour is a factor, but there's a lot more going wrong there than that.

You don't know anything about UC schools except you heard they were socialist Meccas.

Can I get a link on anyone calling Berkeley a socialist mecca?

You do realize the minimum wage doesn't get to $15 an hour until 2022, right? So it's hilarious that your news source blames the $15 an hour wage, not mismanagement at the college. Why don't you bash the fact the management fucked up, but they keep their jobs while they let the janitors go?topdawgnc said: -
Why don't you just say that you think those jobs were murdered?

That said, I didn't see anything about $15/hour in that article.
Any of you guys that are worried that paying people $15/hour is going to cause unemployment in your job sector... should look into upgrading your job sector. -
The much bigger concern is small businesses that can't afford a 50% increase in their cost of labor.OZONE said:

For the record, I think the idea of a "living wage job" is stupid. People should not expect to live alone in a one bedroom apartment on minimum wage, let alone support a spouse and kids.
Do what I fucking did... work you way through college sharing a 3 bedroom place with 4 dudes (yeah, one guy slept on the couch).
I do agree with many liberal ideas, and I'm pro labor, but I agree that the living wage idea is fucked up.
That said, is $15/hour really that hard for small business to afford? I wouldn't know, I've been in corporate life for the past 25 years.

Ozone's 75% correct. The living wage as stipulated is not actually a real drain on businesses. However I disagree that the "living wage" is unworkable. This is a wealthy country; there's no reason that in late capitalism there shouldn't be guaranteed income for the working class, accompanied by a free market for the middle class strivers like Sven. Zing.

Businesses have absorbed every minimum wage hike without issues. If people were saying $15 an hour tomorrow, some would struggle. But these are increases over a few years. About every 10 years we go through a minimum wage increase. The federal side should increase minimum wage to about $10 an hour.OZONE said:

$30/ hour minimum wage would allow everyone to buy new fuel efficient cars, pay for healthcare, a home, college for more kids... $45 would be better still

The biggest problem is we've told this generation to follow their heart and study something that makes them happy. Most of the shit that makes them happy is worthless in the real world.
Can't wait until we get to pay for everybody to have a worthless major! -

It's weird because my quarter at UW cost like 180 dollars in the mid 70's. I hated college so I bounced around until I started in construction. Back then no degree was required. As the years went by the whole construction management scam started and now you need a degree.
When college was affordable you didn't need a degree. Now that you "need" a degree and the government is backing the loans the cost is insane.
We always loved the college guys in the construction trailers. They didn't have a clue or a chance against a wily veteran like me.
You could start at the bottom and work your way up and learn the REAL way things worked while doing so. There are a lot of yutes today who could thrive in that.
If you want to be a doctor or a lawyer or a master of the universe on Wall Street go to college. Otherwise take my fellow republican, APAG's advice and work hard and good things will happen. Most of the time. -
