For arguments sake, let's say that McDonald's or any other fast food chain agrees to pay $15.00 an hour what do you really think will happen next? A chain the size of McDonald's or Burger King won't go out of business, however though, all those employees working 35 - 40 hours a week, expect your hours to drop down to 20 - 25 hours a week. Fast food industry is not unionized and never will be. By paying a cost to employees from $7.35 to $15.00 an hour is quite a leap. Now you know if the rich guy is forced to pay more in wages to employees, do any of you really believe they will take it in the shorts? The companies would cut cost in other areas such as hmmm let's see...medical benefits and retirement benefits. So for all those folks protesting, careful what you wish for. And for smaller chains, they'll just shut down some of the restaurants that don't make as much money. So now what, these workers take McDonald's or any other company to court? Ha, the judge would throw the case out, once again, not a unionized industry. Doesn't take an economics major to figure this out.![]()
and who do you think is behind all this we want more money lets strike?
the unions.
The unions want the fast food industry to be unionized.... they want the dues.
As of now, the fast food industry isn't unionized. Therefore, those employees are participating in a non-sanctioned strike. These folks could be fired. Just as well, with unemployment up, they're plenty of folks that would be glad to get a job. These folks are too dense to realize that they are easily replaceable.
