Minnesota Burger King Workers Smash Windows After Prank Call - ABC News

Let them raise the wages. The faster (no pun intended) fast-food disappears the better. It's mostly disgusting bile that you shouldn't even be consuming anyways. Garbage in, garbage out. The future won't really have a place for mass produced meats with animals shoved in living caskets just long enough to be murdered and sold for profit.

Don't misconstrue this as me saying you don't have a human right to fat-food. You have a human right to eat whatever you want and if the market place wants to provide it for, great. I'm all for self-deportation though in this case. Policies the left enacts destroys markets and people's lives. It matters not to them since they don't feel it most of the time. For example the luxury yacht tax. Anyways, they wouldn't be able to avoid having to see their ends which they claimed the means justified.

At $15/hour, these places will be hiring recent college grads with English degrees.

The old employees will continue smashing windows though. The ones in your house when you are away.

Lol

Sorry, that made me laugh when it really shouldn't have.

American CEO's are the ones who give our politicians their campaign money, and American CEO's get to control their pay (regular Americans do not have that power.)

CEO to worker pay ratio's by country,

Japan 11:1
Germany 12:1
America 475:1

There is a law giving CEO's higher pay (and they make that law by giving our politicians money.)

How many times do you need to be show that that is propaganda and you still continue to repeat it. The actual CEO pay to average worker is even less than Getmany and Japan except when you pick a few CEO's of huge multi-billion dollar companies with a large salary so that you can heavily skew the statistics. It's very telling you still won't use BLS.gov

You said American CEO pay is less than Germany and Japan.

Can you provide a source backing up your claim?

Answer: NO, but you can sure spout "corporate propaganda."

Chief Executives

Unless the average wage of a regular employee is $389/year somewhere, someone lied to you. Instead of being a good liberal and challenging it you took it in and started parroting it.

LAW: Businessmen CEO's do not give someone $900 million dollars for nothing (they get something for their political expenses.)

You said American CEO pay is less than Germany and Japan. But your above source contains CEO statistics from America (not Germany or Japan.)

Can you provide a source to prove your statement?
Answer: No (because your statement is not true.)
