But it's not biting them in the ass. It's hurting shitty companies who are too cheap to hire legal workers and hurting illegal immigrants. Wages will rise for laborers, and that's a good thing.
I don't know bruh, I'm in Florida and no one is coming in to fill the gaps left by the undocumented workers DeSantis is driving away. Fruits are being left unpicked on the trees. Almost everyone here agrees it was a dumb move by a governor who's proving himself even dumber than fucking Trump was. It's our fault though.
You already have plenty of workers, just not ones wiling to work for low wages. The only change is certain things are going to cost more.
lol telling american businesses to pay living wages is like to telling an alcoholic to stop drinking. They're going to open employment to like 6 year olds.
Maybe, but that's also illegal.
I don't think this bothers US businesses much, likely they'll legalize it.
