Santa Fe’s living wage.

The living wage in Santa Fe has claimed another business.  Village Inn, a nationwide pancake restaurant has left SF claiming the living wage as the main cause of doing so.  Their lease expired at the end of last year and there was no mention of a rent increase in the article, just the living wage law that SF councilors jammed down businesses throats.  I know of at least a dozen of places that closed due to the living wage law and Village Inn is the latest.

Way to go Santa Fe!  You’ve placed another 30-50 people out of work.
