The financial statements of those companies are publicly available. I've checked them. Maybe you should.

So how are Nordstroms, Macys, Target, Kohls, Walmart, and all the other department and discount stores still in business and quite profitable? Maybe they just out-competed Gottschalks?

You are assuming a lot, yet for some reason not really reading and understanding what people write about their firsthand experience. For example, how do you know that these stores are "quite profitable", and second did you not read that profit was cut 50%? From one law alone? And did you further choose to ignore that we have another two (2) as in dos, more minimum wage increases? Two in two years? And you still just refuse to believe that this is going to be a problem?



Once again, I just think that conversation is pointless with you. You start these threads in order to make a point, not to have conversation. You are passive/ aggressive.
