@SilverDudeMan @Handre Yes, businesses seek to operate for profit. If labor costs more than automation, they’ll go with automation. And the silly minimum wage has only accelerated this as workers find out the real minimum wage is zero when they aren’t worth hiring.

@Handre Oh look, that thing economic illiterates said won't happen, happened

[Handre @Handre]

McDonald's announced they're replacing cashiers with kiosks in California just after the $20 minimum wage kicked in. Shocking to absolutely no one who understands basic economics. When you artificially price labor above its market value, employers find substitutes. Machines, automation, or they simply eliminate positions entirely.

The teenagers who desperately need that first job experience? Gone. The single mother trying to re-enter the workforce after years away? Priced out by someone with more skills. You've just created a legal barrier that prevents the least skilled workers from competing on the one thing they had going for them: willingness to work for less while they build experience.

Politicians pat themselves on the back for "helping workers" while unemployment among young minorities hits double digits. The workers who keep their jobs benefit (temporarily), but the invisible victims, those who never get hired in the first place, don't make headlines. Economics doesn't care about your good intentions.

@fandompulse That would be called Capitalism. The best products sell while old outdated products taper off. If you want a company that lasts, you gotta provide the best products.

I stand by every word.

When Ensemble Studios was murdered, the devs didn’t “die”. Some of us founded four new game studios. Some went and pollinated the rest of the industry. Everyone benefited except MicroSoft, who killed us.

And we were a studio that ought not to die. Studios that SHOULD die should go.
