🚨🇺🇸 GAVIN NEWSOM’S $20 FAST-FOOD WAGE JUST KILLED 19,000 JOBS
California’s glorious “worker empowerment” experiment is now official: since the $20 minimum hit in April 2024, the state has erased more than 19,000 fast-food jobs - over 25% of ALL fast-food jobs lost in the entire United States.
Hours slashed, overtime banned, mom-and-pop stores closing or flipping to kiosks because they can’t afford the Newsom tax.
Prices? Up 14.5% on average.
A Combo meal that was $11 is now $18–22.
Families who used to grab a quick bite after soccer practice are now eating at sit-down joints or just staying home with ramen.
Chains are installing kiosks and AI drive-thrus faster than you can say “would you like fries with your unemployment.”
Wendy’s, McDonald’s, and El Pollo Loco already testing robots because Gavin made humans too expensive.
But the best part: the workers still employed are making less total money because their hours got gutted harder than the wage went up.
Meaning: Newsom handed unions a trophy, handed BlackRock cheaper real estate when the leases default, and handed every working-class family in California the bill - while he sips Napa cabernet and pretends this was “progress.”

Mike Rowe: “We’ve got $1.7 trillion in student debt on the books and we’ve got 7.6 million open jobs right now—most of which don’t require a 4-year degree.”
“And we’ve got 6.8 million able-bodied men who are not only out of the workforce, they’re not looking.”
“We took shop class out of high school, we robbed kids of the opportunity to see what that kind of work even looks like.”
“Meanwhile, we told a whole generation of kids they were f**king screwed if they didn’t get a 4-year degree.”
“How did college get so expensive? Nothing has gotten more expensive in the last 40 years than a 4-year degree. Not real estate, not healthcare, not energy, nothing.”
“We keep telling kids they’re screwed if they don’t go in this direction. We free up endless money to loan them.”
“Something beyond the tariffs, something beyond policy is gonna have to happen to make 22-year old go, yeah, I would consider” learning a trade.
