(I'm not sure if this is a completely accurate or un-biased source, just putting that out there)
I'm not trying to start a political flamewar, but it's big news here in CA. I personally think it's a turn for the better.
Thoughts?

I know that some people are going to use this as an excuse for businesses cutting jobs but in my mind it's an easy cop out for them since those businesses wanted to cut jobs anyways. And until the Feds do something to bring inflation down; which as I understand it, isn't going to happen, then wages continually need to be brought up to so that the jobs at minimum wage can afford a livable existence.
