I seldom eat fast food. These activities make me think I will avoid them entirely in the future.

I don't want some disgruntled McDonald's employees spitting in my hamburger and my drink.

These fast food beggars are really pissing me off. There's so much turnover in the industry that if you show up for your shift on time and hustle, you'll be promoted to a leadership position within a couple of months. Within two years (if not sooner) you're a shift manager making well above minimum wage. Admittedly, still a pretty crappy job considering your employees and not so great pay, but it's a damn sight better than 7 bucks an hour. Put in your time in management and then you can get the hell out of McDonalds and head over to Pizza Hut, after that you may need a college degree, but you'll have the skills to be an assistant manager at an OUtback. And if you do that job well you can go on to be a full manager and eventually a district manager for that excellent corporation. And it all starts with "do you want fries with that?"

Lazy, shiftless bastards. And I have news for the baby's mother. The last thing she wants is 15 bucks an hour. She'll lose her WIC and free healthcare for her baby. She's better off at minimum wage. Just don't work to hard, or she'll be promoted and lose her government bennies.

The New York franchises ought to raise their wage to $25/hour, then lay off all those they can’t afford at that rate.

“Cavuto segment exposed the viewers to the citizen and voter mentality that can lead to someone like Obama in the White House “leading” our nation”

CAVUTO = Old School
OBAMA = New School

Trying to reason with a democrat is a useless endeavor....that’s why I simply stopped associating with them at all. I don’t feel anything friendly about a group of stupid ass people who think the government is around to give them free sh#t and businesses are around to furnish jobs to morons!!!

Just playing devil’s advocate here ....

Should a McDonald’s employee in NYC make the same as a McD employee in El Paso, TX? Quite a stark difference in cost of living between the two places. But currently, beginning employees make the same in both places.

(Fast) Food for thought. :-)

th sisimplistic solution would be to close down entirely. let people a)do without the service, and b) the employees will get 0% of a lot, which, to a lib, is better then 100% of something...

1892 - Entitled Steel Strikers Demand to Be Paid More Than They’re Worth

1936 - Entitled Auto Strikers Demand to Be Paid More Than They’re Worth

As somebody notable once said, what difference does it make?

I just wish there had been fast food jobs when I was a teen, when the minimum wag was about $1 an hour, I would have relished that extra spending money to buy gas for my old jalopy.

Of course, once I got grown and kids came along, I got educated and got more substantial jobs to live up to my responsibilities as a husband and parent. But that was before the social justice crowd made a cottage industry out of having babies for fun and profit.

Personal accountability and responsibility is dying.

Another gift from the democrats for the last fifty years.

I doubt that you could explain the economics of the situation to these people. Most people, even educated ones, don't realize that in the restaurant business, margins are razor thin.

Every day I thank Algore for this Interweb thingie. It's like a pipe, you know...

It lets me know that this same nonsense is going on everywhere, and the number, amazingly, is the same...$15/hr.

Locally there are a couple unions and "community organizations" behind it.

A coincidence, you think?

stupid screen blackouts and popup ads. EF um if I will wade through that crap to read an article. Tried to complain and their idiotic anti cyborg screen is broken.

Flaming incompetence.

This is pure street organizer economics...the man has lots of money ...it just isn’t in your pocket or a variation on Marxist economics that all profit is made from exploiting the workers. These idiots have no clue where this money to pay them $15 per hour comes from just that they want it. Of course Obama himself believed that reducing the Social Security tax would cause businesses to hire more people. This entire administration hasn’t the business sense to profitably run a hot dog stand.
