For those who care, my name is JP and I currently live in New York City. This blog is mostly history, politics, old hollywood, and whatever else I find interesting. I study history at Columbia University, aber ich lerne auch Deutsch. Also, I am sworn to marry the next man who gets me an enlgish bulldog.

Costco CEO Craig Jelinek supports raising the minimum wage.

Costco announced record profits today, averaging $10,000 in profit per employee compared to $7,400 at Walmart. The secret to Costco’s success is paying employees well, providing benefits, and giving them an opportunity to unionize.

So large corporations’ excuses that treating & paying workers well would damage profits are all a crock of shit.
