This article is representative of 1) the stupidity of the media and 2) the lies of the left.
Nowhere in the article does it mention what a “living wage” actually is - or how the workers were compensated. The Boston Globe is behind a paywall, but I doubt it said also. I tried to find out details by going to several other sights, ALL regurgitating the same propaganda. Even the operator of the business, only give us this bit of fluff
According to Dudley Doughs Facebook page, workers received wages above industry standards and received the direct economic benefit of their labors through profit sharing. The shop gave out free pizza four days a week to students of local math tutoring program Pie R Squared and hosted weekly events like Social Justice Mondays.
Was also interesting to learn that Patriots owner Robert Kraft donated $100K to this pizza place also.
In sum what is “social justice?” - cheap slogans, political pressure, and bad business plans.
IOW, the Patriots’ owner paid their salaries as they passed out free pizza.
No where does it say how much they determined their employees were worth.
Don’t understand the need for going out for pizza. Make pizza at home for a quarter of the price. Though I have noticed the restaurant prices have dropped a lot in the past couple of years.
