Seems like a nice incentive for companies to raise workers' wages, provided the 1:12 law is written in a way that is difficult to get around.

So it's either:

A) Double, triple, 10x existing wages - and go out of business before the year is out.

B) Dictate to privately run and owned businesses that they are subjects of their employees (rather than the other way around) - creating resentment, socialism, and speeding up automation and outsourcing.

I don't see a win here for anyone.

I see what you did there. :) There are many other ways it could go.
