Fast-food workers strike, seeking $15 wage, political muscle

[easyt65]

I don't know if any lefties have commented on the rampant use of the term "slaves" on this thread.

What an insult to the real slaves who suffered in our history, and who continue to suffer in other parts of the world. Of course, since paulitician and his use of the term support their position on evil corporations, they must be pretending not to see it.

Real slaves had no choice but to work where they did; real slaves couldn't quit their "jobs" if they didn't like the way they were treated; real slaves were abused physically and psychologically; real slave women were raped constantly; real slaves were forced to work in horrific conditions every single day; real slaves worked in chains, literally.

But the constant use of the term "slaves" on this thread is cool with the PC Police, because they are nasty, dishonest hypocrites.
.

'Economic Slavery' is bad as well. Many (not all) people find their government offers NO SOLUTION to poverty, to having to go on social programs to survive - no opportunity to get off of them, become independent, self-sufficient...and many find their dependency growing, and before too long they are handing over their vote and saying 'thank you for these crumbs' instead of demanding to know when the REAL help is coming - real help such as bringing jobs back,

Our government does not provide programs to get people OFF of these programs, do not partner with companies to create job training/producing programs. It's all designed to keep people UN-Successful and addicted to the government...for the politicians and party's own benefit.

There is more than just 1 type of slavery and prisons. Some come without bars, shackles, and chains. .

And come on greedy white Republican dudes. It's not like $15 an hr is even that much money in today's America. It's actually peanuts. And these workers aren't demanding it of Government. They're demanding it of their Employer.

So it's really none of your business, unless you're connected with McDonalds in some way. Otherwise, it's between the employee and employer. So quit bitchin and let them sort it out.

I cook for fun,and I promise you my skills in the kitchen,BBQ pit or grill far surpass whatever you think you may know about frying potatoes.
So what exactly is difficult about dumping frozen pieces of potato into hot grease and waiting for the beep anyway?
Maybe if you stopped fishing em out with your hands the job would come a little easier for you?

You open a burger joint, just hop your fat ass on the grill and do the work yourself. After all, it is such 'easy work.' Then we won't have to listen to your incessant whining about having to pay Americans a livable wage.

Just because you open a business, it doesn't mean you're entitled to having your slaves. You're not special. So either pay up, or just shut up. No one wants to be your slave.

Which is why people earn salaries at those places and apply to work there.
Did you not get the memo that employment is voluntary?

Yes, you've been provided your slaves. People have to work to survive. You greedy white Republican dudes sure have exploited that reality. But hopefully that time is passing. Hopefully Unions will make a comeback. When they were strong, there was a balance.

Since their demise, you greedy ones have been allowed to run amok and acquire your slaves. The balance has been disturbed. It's time for the pendulum to swing back in the workers' direction. We need balance again.

Hope in one hand and shit in the other and see which one fills up first....

You sure do hope it doesn't happen, huh? Scares the shit out of you greedy white Republican dudes. You may actually have to pay a fellow American a livable wage. Oh the horror!!

You guys actually crack me up. Such hateful greedy cheapskates. Strong Unions are the best way to keep y'all in line. I can see why y'all hate em so much. More reason for a big comeback.

I dont need to hope,i'm retired.
And I pay the mexicans that do all my yard work 65 bucks a week which is totally fair.

Ha, good thing your type is going extinct. It actually cracks me up watching y'all freak out over the idea you may not have your slaves anymore. In full hysterical panic-mode. I love it.

Spoken like a guy who has never owned or run a business.

McDonalds was actually the VERY FIRST company that told Obama that due to his ACA Mandates they would be FIRING a LOT of people, contrary to the little lie he told. The added expense of ACA insurance for all of his full-time employees would cause this, so before the ink from his signature was even dry on the ACA he was wearing out that 'auto-signature' machine printing out ACA Mandate Exemption letters for thousands of companies.

$15 an hour is the difference between having 10 workers and 7-8. McDonald's is not going to absorb the loss in profit due to the jacked up minimum wage. Either 'Scooter' and 'Amy' are being let go - FIRED - or you better get ready for $7 - $8 Big Macs.

I know a homeless American vet staying in a shelter trying to get back on his feet that would do it for $50....

Shit, $15 is peanuts. But i'm willing to compromise. They could settle on something like $12-13 an hr. There's room for compromise. But i'm not counting on a greedy shite Corporation like McDonalds to do that.

WHY is your vision for America SO LOW?
WHY have you bought into the Progressive Liberal B$ that the best job you can expect to have is a $15 Fast Food job?
Why aren't you demanding your politicians, suckling off the Special Interest Big business teat, bring manufacturing jobs back to the US and NOT bringing in technicians and specialists from outside the country to fill jobs Americans should be filling?

Your numbers are rapidly dwindling. The greedy hateful white Republican dude's day is almost over. HALLELUJAH!!!

 

[EdwardBaiamonte]

McDonalds has made $Billions off the blood, sweat, and tears of their slave workers. So it gets no sympathy from me. It's time for McDonalds to do some good for a change.

feeding and employing billions is not good????
Can a liberal be 100% stupid??

 

[easyt65]

Your numbers are rapidly dwindling. The greedy hateful white Republican dude's day is almost over. HALLELUJAH!!!

You DO know that in the 2016 Presidential race the ONLY party of diversity, the ONLY party whose candidates are anything BUT greedy, millionaire, OLD, white 'dudes' are REPUBLICAN, right?!

 

[EdwardBaiamonte]

Why aren't you demanding your politicians,......
,bring manufacturing jobs back to the US?

Republicans are demanding it!! Thats why they want to eliminate the liberal policies that cause it:

1) liberal taxes which are highest in world
2) liberals deficits
3) liberal unions
4) liberal war on family and schools

 

[EdwardBaiamonte]

So why dont democrat business owners pay their employees 50 bucks an hour?

its a free country!! They should be allowed to do it. You see, liberals rule by violence. They insist govt liberals with guns force us to do everything they want.

What the hell?

So in your strange universe the Walmart heirs are going to change to black democrats?

Lmao...

 

[NightFox]

Apparently some people believe just because they open a business, they have the right to be provided with slaves. They believe they're special and are entitled to it.

LOL, Do you not understand what the word "slave" means? Are you operating under the delusion that American Businesses actually OWN their employees? Sorry to break it to you Mr. Marx but that just isn't the case.

But guess what? Don't wanna pay a fellow American a livable wage?

Define "livable", Does it have anything to do with prevailing market rates? Employers don't owe anybody a "livable" anything, they owe employees what they agreed to pay them and the employee agreed to accept for their labor, it's called a contract, look it up.

Don't open a business, or simply do the work yourself. You can't have your slaves. Sorry, but that day is passing. And well it should.

Again with the whole "slavery" thing, you really should study English before attempting to use it in a sentence. After you do that you can come back and tell me about all the times you voluntary pay above market rates for all the things you buy (since by your logic if you're not you're treating all the producers of those things like "slaves").

 

[EdwardBaiamonte]

Then we wouldn't have to listen to their constant whining about having to pay their slaves.

paul is the dumbest liberal here by far. 100% illiterate too. He has no idea that a capitalist business must provide the best possible jobs and products just to survive. If anyone doubts it open a business with the worst jobs and products and see how long you survive.

See why we say Paul is the dumbest here??
