Wonder how these “workers,” who are “barely surviving” now, can afford to lose time, travel to Chicago, and stay there for a few days.

Sure you can. Just replace stupid with the automated ordering units that some places are already using. Nothing like a salary that’s no salary.

Automation will eliminate most of the fast-food jobs and this demand for salaries far above the workers value to the business will simply accelerate that inevitability. Idiots.

Invest in Japanese companies that make these. I believe that they will be expanding soon into America.

Sure. Wait until a large part of their wage goes to a pinky ring wearing guy named Vinny as initiation fees and union dues.

Of course the SEIU is behind this. They are frantic to replace all the dues money when their scheme to force home health care givers into their union was declared illegal.

They are cutting their own throats.
If the wages rise to the level they demand, employers will hire not only fewer, but will screen applicants ever more closely for the highest caliber of worker they can get for their dollars. That means all these young people will be left out in favor of older, more stable, more experienced workers that can show up, clean, sober and eager to work.........................

"We want to talk about building leadership, power and doing whatever it takes depending on what city they're in and what the moment calls for," said Fells," As I just commented on Yahoo!, translated, this means:
"We want to use this 'issue' to build our Democrat power base, to elect more Democrats into Congress and in other positions in order to legislate higher wages and other anti-business lawas and regulations. If necessary, we're prepared to walk out on our jobs, stage sit-ins and astro-turf protests, antagonize and threaten would-be customers from eating at these establishments. If that doesn't work, we'll riot, smash windows, and firebomb these restaurants until they shut down completely, or comply with our extortion negotiation tactics."

One thousand fast food workers?
Out of what - ten or twenty million?
This is a joke.
To: E. Pluribus Unum
Go for it. I can do without fast food of all kinds.
