Or instead of paying two employees $10.74/hr, they'll pay one employee $15/hr, and buy a food ordering kiosk.

I suspect in 10 yrs, most fast food emporiums will have two employees per shift, and most of their work will be receiving / stocking the food and janitorial work.

EXACTLY! The only people who lose here are the employees and soon to be former employees. It is sad, because teenagers who just want a job - any job to pay for their gas, buy a used car, save some money for college or take a girl on a date now have fewer options for work. The whole idea of minimum wage is absurd. I thought the minimum wage was an agreed upon amount between the employer and the employee. You know...choice.
