Feeling Groovy

All the good progressives in San Francisco are rallying around the push for a $15/hour minimum wage - a "living" wage. Not to throw ice water on your fantasies, but the city’s Office of Economic Analysis has released its review of the impact of this proposal and says that if it passes:

"... by 2019 the private sector will have approximately 15,270 fewer jobs... This represents approximately 2 percent of private employment in the city.”

So what?! Damn the torpedoes; full speed ahead! After all, it's our good intentions that count, not the actual results for the people that have to live with them.
