    After winning her House race last year, New York Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., "swung by" to say goodbye to the Coffee Shop in Union Square where she used to work.

    She tweeted: "The restaurant I used to work at is closing its doors. I swung by today to say hi one last time, and kid around with friends like old times."

    What she didn't say is that the popular coffee shop was closing its doors because it couldn't afford the $15 minimum pay raise that Ocasio-Cortez has gone on to strongly support.

    “The times have changed in our industry,” co-owner Charles Milite told The New York Post. “The rents are very high and now the minimum wage is going up and we have a huge number of employees.”

    The American Action Forum calculates that minimum wage hikes will kill 261,000 jobs -- with most of the losses concentrated in New York and California.
    Talk to your molestor-in-chief who sells access to real estate IN NY! about the high price of real estate and running decent folks out.... Read the articles moron instead of relying on your stupid prejudism

    ..."And yet, even this high level of sales wasn’t enough to inoculate the business from the rising cost of rent and wages in New York. Coffee Shop co-owner and president Charlies Milite told Forbes that rent had become “unusually high,” accounting for close to 27% of the restaurant’s gross revenues. ..."

      Are you advocating against a free-market?

      Anyhoo...

      “We’d been thinking about [closing] for the last year,” Michael Weinstein, CEO of Ark Restaurants, which purchased Durgin-Park in 2007, told Boston.com. “First of all, our landlords are terrific. It’s an expense problem that we’ve been facing. We [own] several venues across the country that are facing a minimum wage increase. As part of that, we’re facing an increase in liability, property and health insurance.”

        It's all the other expenses that are killing his bottom line. Rents in NY are insane and it's harder for the little guys to make ends meet. Paying a few $ more to staff isn't doing him in. And in a tight job market as it is now, then wages usually go up as companies have to pay a little more to attract quality staff. Companies have gotten away with stagnant wages for YEARS.

            Boston University must cringe every time this economics major alumnae opens her mouth. Got to imagine a ton of parents are scratching their heads at paying 70k to have the same education as this airhead.

              Trump's purge of DHS has left ten high level positions open. One of the agencies that's supposed to keep us safe from terrorists, actual terrorists. Supposedly he called the outgoing Secret Service head Dumbo because of his large ears. Nice way to endear yourself to the men and women whose sole job is to protect your lard azz.

                A lot of them like her. How do you think Wharton alumni and current faculty and students feel every time Trump mentions he went there?

                  “While there are people who have a large number of Twitter followers, what's important is that we have large numbers of votes on the floor of the House.”


                  Eeeeessshhh... Getting ugly over on that side of the aisle.

                    If the illegals stayed home they could keep their own children right next to them.

                    Good thing Hillary isn't President. If she was, she would be looking into making all the illegals the 51st state.

                        And after he’s out of office he will be the only member of an even more exclusive club. Presidents who are convicted felons.

                            Awww. Shouldn’t talk about YOUR President like that!

                            How is the therapy going? Do you still sob at the sight of “I’m with Her” stickers?

                              The right keeps going after her, which only fuels to attention, much like the left obsess over every Trump tweet. Ignore the blowhards and it cuts their oxygen off

                                Chicken or the egg for the both of them. AOC can't shut up and neither can Oranjina.
