Whereas San Francisco ha 2 . So, San Francisco requires a 98 accuracy rating on inspection where chicago is 96 . And then online retailers, we looked at the larger retailers because they were the ones that created the need to establish this regulation. And our local ordinance here in San Francisco explicitly cited california business and professions code 12 0 24. 6 ~ and that states that no personal firm, corporation or association shall advertise, solicit or represent any means a product for sale or purchase if it isnt intend ited to entice consumer into a transaction different from that originally presented. And thats why we started looking into these larger entities that do business online. First, we looked at amazon, and amazon, even if you add an item to your shopping cart, the price can fluctuate after you have added it. So, the question was does that does that entice a customer to add it to the cart to purchase the item and then the business changes that on the price that what o
That, you know, that the future is going to look different. And i think its going to look less Small Business, a lot bigger business. You know, i dont think that and i think a lot of these people that are going to benefit are, in fact, going to move out of the city and be people that come in from the outside. So, its unfortunate that San Francisco ultimately will not benefit from this rise in minimum wage in a way that we would hope. Thank you. All right. Commissioner toursarkissian. Thank you, mr. Eagan. I have a question about the remi simulation. Im referring to your slide number 19, which you report that an estimation of 1500 15,270 private sector jobs will be lost by 2019. First, i would like you to explain to me what the remi simulation is and whether it takes into account into account all the increases in cost of operation in the city, benefits, sick leave, that may not have been in place in 2004 that are in 2014 or 2014 to 2019. Curious to find out whether that was included as
That are in 2014 or 2014 to 2019. Curious to find out whether that was included as well, could have further increased the loss or simulation loss of jobs. So, the remi model is basically a system of economic equations, several hundred economic equations that are set up in which some of the variables in these equations are policy variableses. Theyre things that our government might want to change, or the things that a government might want to change would affect these things. Labor costs, the average Compensation Rate for industries, are the policy are among the policy variables. In the remi model, those are the ones that we changed in this particular simulation. When he we talk about employment effects with remi, were always talking about the difference between a baseline projection in which the policy doesnt happen and how the economy would evolve differently if you make the changes in the policy variables that were talking about. So, the 15,000 starts in 2015. Its based on an identic
Building with a handgun, according to fox news he cally. Knowing that there are over 4,000 staffers and interns at risk here on thec house side o the capital and are and recalling the horrible Gabby Giffords strategy and the loss of zimmerman, i would ask that members refrain from making statements that could even possible approximately be misconstrued by the public as an invitation to do anything like that. Its obvious that representative lomas meant no such thing and i think it behooves all of us to be careful about the way we phrase things because there are people out there ready and able to misconstrue things. With that, mr. Chairman, i yield back. Gentleman yields back and the chair recognizes the gentleman from georgia, mr. Collins. Thank you, mr. Chair, appreciate it. Here we go again. I told the story last time. I wish i could sit here and say what was not plausible then has gotten a little more plausible . It seems not to have gotten any more plausible. We still continue and
People we spoke to on scene said they saw the man after the scene happened, the man who was able to get the child out of that car. They say he was wearing some sort of official uniform but no word yet on that man mas identity. Live outside Temple University hospital tonight, matt rivers, cbs3 Eyewitness News.
