Apparently Justin Bieber has nothing to do with the new Los Angeles billboard that uses his image and name to oppose raising the minimum wage, on the grounds that such a hike would keep the teenage unemployment rate high.
Rather, Rick Berman — the Washington lobbyist who works for the restaurant industry — simply bought rights to a Bieber photo and created a billboard which strongly implies that Bieber thinks raising the minimum wage would hurt teenagers. Or so reports Huffington Post.
