SF New Mexican: Minimum wage in Santa Fe going to $14.60 on March 1.

That’s great news. I’ve written about the living wage before. When it began to be applied, those businesses with threadbare business models died fast. Restaurants tried to reduce quality/portion sizes to keep prices steady for a while … then finally gave up and just raised their prices so they could support quality workers. Since then, everything else has been remarkably consistent (speaking as a consumer!).
