Why are we talking about whether paying fast food workers a better wage will drive up the cost of a Big Mac instead of asking how much McDonald's CEO's $19.2 million salary is driving up the cost? Hello?
@rbreich that is also the wrong question, the better question is why should taxpayers supplement the income of low-paid McDonalds workers with government-provided benefits? Why allow jobs that don’t pay people enough to live at even poverty levels?

If businesses can’t afford to pay a living wage, they are not a viable business 🤷
