If you make a commodity artificially expensive, you discourage its use. Leftists understand this when they want to understand it, like when they call for carbon taxes. It's not like other pizza places are closing down. Papa John's simply isn't making a product people are willing to pay for. It's their fault. Inflated labor costs hit the most vulnerable businesses first. Clearly they aren't very good at running a business if an increase cost kills them completely. A lot of people are giving Trump shit because a trade war will make particular commodities more expensive and endanger certain US companies.

DoctorVader 04/02/18 6:50:42 PM #59:	Come on CE. Get full information before posting. Rochester is shithole land and several hundred miles from NYC. You know, across the lake from Toronto. Also it's a franchise, once again in Rochester. It's very easy to have things like minimum wage affect a franchise. One man owned all these shops. Also, the minimum wage is slowly creeping up every year. Not all at once. So expect even more things, especially franchises, to close up shop. --- It all just disappears, doesn't it?

The problem with the chain stores is that they probably have to adhere to certain price structures.
