A shock to absolutely no one who has an elementary understanding of how wages work in a small business. But hilariously embarrassing for the left wing SJWs who fought for this and now look like idiots.
Backstory: Seattle passed this Min Wage a few years ago and it's not even to $15/hour yet. The government asked a bipartisan group of economists at U of W to study the impact.
They found that on a whole, workers are getting 9% less hours than before, resulting in 6% less wages, which translates to roughly $125 lost wages every month.
So basically, in this fight on INCOME INEQUALITY!, these liberals have assured that these workers will actually take home less. Bravo!

Predictably, the PARTY OF SCIENCE! has totally ignored these findings and just recently, the extremist known as Keith Ellison posted a video celebrating Minneapolis' adoption of $15 min wage, on the same day this study came out.
