Croissants at LaGuardia are going for SEVEN DOLLARS A PIECE 
Yet some people think getting a whole hour of personal, dedicated human labor for $15 is too expensive??
GOP taking every tweet so earnestly, making my point for me. It’s not an argument against the price of a croissant - it’s about the value of human worth.
But I guess that idea is foreign to them since their policies treat people as disposable anyway 
Going against a living wage is a half-baked notion, to be sure.
If I am a business owner and all of a sudden I have to pay someone $15 an hour, wouldn't I just raise my prices to keep the same margins??? So in effect nothing happens...
Devil's advocate: I estimate it would take me 3-4 hours to produce a single edible croissant.
It is crazy that people don't think that another human helping them for an hour is not worth two twisted biscuits.
You don't understand how markets work, do you?
Your understanding of economics and finance astounds me
But look! 12 croissants at WALMART for $3.98! Ain't America grand???pic.twitter.com/mgHkmBpgxo
The Walmart croissant costs more than $15/hour. The difference is the federal government subsidizes the Walmart workforce with healthcare and food stamps. The hidden costs of that $3.98 is we subsidize the difference. Corporate welfare at its best.
