'"The reality is that most business are not going to pay $15 dollars an hour and keep their doors open'

In-N-Out Burger has found a way to pay more than others for starting off, then increasing the pay very soon for employees.

Perhaps, BK just has a different model.

The minimum wage doesn't allow a employer to differentiate between employees , reward the better ones with higher pay.

This is why you have bad service at minimum wage jobs like McDonald's but not at in and out burger

Let's say i could hire employees at $5 per hour but I would quickly give raises to those that work hard and or do well. then soon I'd have the top ones making $15 per hour and they'd be likely to stay and the ones $5 would quit soon. but if i had to pay all at $15 then I couldn't afford to raise to $25 for the good ones. See ?

It works almost like the free market. you are willing to pay more for better quality or higher value products but if you introduce price controls that ruins the market.

government interference like wage controls, price controls, minimum wage ,affirmative action and the many other burdensome regulations interfere and ruin many businesses. this is why you have lower quality service and product in some fast food joints.

At In-N-Out they never stand around with mouths open and they can converse in English.
