"In November, San Francisco voters overwhelmingly passed a measure that will increase the minimum wage within the city to $15 per hour by 2018. Although all of us at Borderlands support the concept of a living wage in principal and we believe that it's possible that the new law will be good for San Francisco -- Borderlands Books as it exists is not a financially viable business if subject to that minimum wage. Consequently we will be closing our doors no later than March 31st."

I would love to know why Borderlands thinks "it's possible that the new law will be good for San Francisco" considering other employers like them will be closing down because of it. Low wages > no wages.
