It’s a day ending in “y,” which means Bernie Sanders is advocating for a minimum wage increase:
Raising the minimum wage to $15 an hour may have been a fringe idea a few years ago, but now it is a mainstream idea whose time has come.

Actually, that’s not too far off. Check out this business news from just today:

More from the Hill:
Walmart announced on Monday that it plans to deploy 360 autonomous custodial robots by the end of January that will mop the floors of some of its stores.
The retailer said in a joint statement with developer Brain Corp. that the machines will be able to scrub floors even with customers around. The robots will feature multiple sensors that allow them to scan for people and obstacles.
“BrainOS technology allows robots to effectively and safely function in complex, crowded environments, ensuring increased productivity and efficiency across applications,” Brain Corp. CEO Eugene Izhikevich said in a statement. “We look forward to continuing to work alongside Walmart to help build intelligent, connected stores.”
Well, fancy that!
It begins. https://t.co/lACs7KAAg5

Good thing we raised the minimum wage!

Every single time wages are artificially raised (by government via minimum wage, etc) it winds up hurting the very people who need those jobs the most.
And liberals never ever learn this lesson.

Nope. They just keep asking for more:
So, now, there are more people out of work. Saving this amount of money , how greedy does the Walton Family need to be. All for robots. I wish all Walmart’s employees would go on strike for their fellow workers and not put up with this greed. These are families they are hurting.

Sorry, but no. You progs are the greedy ones. You demand a higher minimum wage … and this is what you get. It’s not Walmart’s fault. It’s not businesses’ fault. It’s the fault of your heroes like Bernie Sanders who decry wealth while demanding it from others.
