This particular McDonald's has a woman with Downs Syndrome who does stuff like wiping tables and refilling the napkins and ketchup. She's probably about 20 years old and she's really, really sweet. She's been working at that McDonald's for about three years. I was always glad she could find a job at that McDonald's, because the job she does is about what she is capable of doing. I'm sure she'll be one of the first to go. So sad.
Exactly.
These are the people who will be “trimmed”. Then they will probably have to go on some kind of public assistance, with the resulting loss of pride and independence.
Very counterproductive.
