The local franchise owners should try a week long experiment.
Give the workers $15 an hour for one week, and raise the prices commensurate with the wage. Then see how many burgers are sold.............

Heck other businesses/renters/utilities will get on the price raising action too knowing a fair amount of fast food employees received a large raise.

Sure, why not. Should be a full simulation, not just an internal exercise to feel maximum impact.

Nope, never give in, never surrender

Give them an inch and they'll take a mile. You would never be able to roll back the wages.
