California Governor Gavin Newsom, who is considered a rising star in the Democrat Party, is under fire after a report this week revealed that he pushed for a special carveout in the state’s new $20 minimum wage law that affects businesses owned by one of his top political allies and donors.
Bloomberg News reported that billionaire Greg Flynn was getting a “new boost” after his chain of Panera Bread locations were exempted from a new law that forces fast food restaurants to increase their minimum wage from $16 to $20 per hour. Flynn is the largest “restaurant franchisee in the US, if not the world,” the report added.

I hope this man's time in office is being studied and will be used in the future as an example of how to utterly destroy a state.

FTA:
Flynn owns thousands of restaurants, including Applebee’s, Pizza Hut, Taco Bell, Wendy’s, Panera Bread, and more. The only restaurants he owns in California are Applebee’s — which is exempt from the law because it’s not a fast food restaurant — and Panera Bread.
Must be nice to have your campaign contributions pay off, but that's why they send them.
Amazingly, i don't eat at any of his restaurants.

EVERY restaurant, pizza joint, Bar, pharmacy, grocery, walmart, auto arts store or...tattoo parlor... that would fall under this "Law" merely needs to Bake some Bread, and offer it for sale.
Instantly exempt.

So, if the others go to $20 per hour, why would you work for Panera? Only the inexperienced or those who are, well, missing a breadstick upstairs would work there. Would I want my food prepared by them? I don't think so.

When a donor buys a politician, the donor expects the politician to stay bought.

Wise people realize that favoritism ruins families. In this case, I will add one word twice - wise business people realize that favoritism ruins business families. . .

repercussions at all.
