Recall candidate Larry Elder says California's minimum wage should be '$0'

[peppertree]

California gubernatorial recall candidate Larry Elder slammed the state's minimum wage on Tuesday, saying it should be much lower: zero.

The conservative radio-host-turned-Newsom-challenger criticized the state's Democratic-led government for imposing a $14 minimum wage for businesses with 26 or more employees and $13 for those employing fewer than 26 people, saying officials are interfering in places they shouldn't.

“The ideal minimum wage is $0.00,” Elder, 69, told the editorial boards of California's McClatchy-owned newspapers.

Elder, the highest-polling Republican running for governor in the Sept. 14 recall election, had filed incomplete tax returns that are required to run - but reiterated his belief the minimum wage should be abolished.

4. Judging from the crowd of ten people behind him....

He's not going to get too far. Radio talk show guys only do it for the publicity.

5. Presumably he'd be happy to work for that wage.
