No worries, if they did succeed in raising the wages to $15 an hour they could just simply increase welfare pmts so it will still pay more than work.

Pfft, I work in L.A. Even the mexican restos’ know how to make a burger. That’s why there’s something called free market economics’. If BK is closed, you go to Wendy’s etc.

No McNuggets? There could be blood in the streets.

or at least a lot of calls to 911.

No information doofuses have no clue what "free market" means. It's the engine that drives prosperity.
But allowing the useless not only to set their own salaries, but to demand the government to control how little they should pay for what they need, ain't it.

Just make the minimum wage for people who can't even make change, answer a single question about their country's history, or how the government works, make it $40 an hour and Hussein's(an Marx') paradise will finally have arrived.

Good, they’ll get to learn math in the process: zero hours worked times pay-rate = $0.

Communists are ignorant of economics. After they close their resteraunts what will they make?

Pray America will wake up

Don’t often use fast food joints so they can close down every other day as far as I am concerned.

The average young person works at McDonald’s for about six months, just enough time to get enough work experience to get the hell out of there and find a better-paying job. Anybody who hangs around there flipping burgers year after year is just a LOSER.
