I'm not saying it will lead to higher unemployment overall, read it again.
I'm saying that if they continue to close the minimum wage gap between an experienced 21+ year old, and an inexperienced 16 - 20 year old, then why would you go for somebody inexperienced? It's young people that minimum wage rises will affect, in that it will mean they have to compete more for low skilled jobs, that much is obvious, is it not?
In regards to the overall minimum wage rise, that's only going to hit point of sale prices. It will lead to job losses, but probably not enough to affect overall figures. Ultimately it will depend on how much the consumer is willing to swallow the price increases and keep spending.
Even as Fender as a 'weak headliner' its a very very strong quartet. And though QOTSA have certain appeal, I dont think they have mass appeal to headline a Werchter.
I'd also love them to headline Werchter. The 23 set before Arctics was something else, as was the arena tour last November.
