Only an idiot would think the move to automation has anything to do with wages.

What a fucking retard.
Do you really think they made a spur of the moment decision about this, or that they have been studying the possibility long enough to make a logical business plan? They are a big business. They don't do anything on a whim.

They have tested and rejected kiosks many times over the last decade. The move for unsustainable wages simply forces the issue. Wendy's can sharply increase prices, and probably go bankrupt, or they can contain costs by drastically cutting the overpriced workforce.
So the fact that they tested so many times should tell you they were headed that direction as soon as possible. A child could see that.
How is $15 per hour unsustainable or overpriced? I do think that it should be a state decision but if the Feds need to set a bar than at least $10-$12. But $7.25 is a joke no matter where you are in the US. Companies like McDonalds have plenty of money to put towards their labor force. Nobody is going broke at the top.Do you really think they made a spur of the moment decision about this, or that they have been studying the possibility long enough to make a logical business plan?

Business is a balance. Customers didn't really like the Kiosks. Most places refrained from mass deployment due to customer push back. The unsustainable labor costs change the dynamic and force the issue.
I think Darden has the best plan, allowing customer to order with their smart phone.
This minimum wage hike will put tens of millions of those on the bottom rung of the economic ladder out of jobs.
All for the insatiable greed of unions who want a cut of fast food.

Heaven forbid if the owners and execs of Wendy's have to lose a point out of their profit share. Prices wouldn't go to $12 a burger because they need to remain competitive im their market. Fast food companies like in and out have shown that they can run a successful business model while taking good care of their employees. We are the USA, we hold our country and businesses to higher standards which means we don't allow child labor, sweatshops or companies to pay their employees wages that keeps them under poverty level.How is $15 per hour unsustainable or overpriced?
Because a Wendy's single burger isn't worth $12 to most Americans. A $15 an hour wage under current conditions will push them to that level. People will simple stop buying.

So do you advocate the state (or feds) owning Wendy's directly?

I don't know, I sure see a lot of expensive ads flying around all over the place, and I don't see the execs hurting too much In their pocket books. Im not buying that they can't afford to pay their workers a livable wage... That's total BSMany fast food establishments have just a one percent profit margin. They can't afford wage hikes. Somebody must be fired or replaced by a machine.
