Normally I don't care for the blaze, but I came across this article and I thought the guy explained how stupid these protesters are pretty well

Everyone deserves to live comfortably if they work hard, and working in fast food is working hard.
Someone obviously doesn't go to fast food joints very much.
Besides, I thought liberals wanted to ban fast food anyway.
Why do liberals hate the hard working poor?!?!
I mean, look at all this hard work!
These guys deserve better!

Pay hourly wage earners $15/hr and watch all goods increase to offset the higher salaries; making the increase a net 0 effect.
..and in 5 years, they will scream for $20/hr.

the problem with this newfangled liberal Keynesian economy is people making too much money. It's absurd.

I chose a career that I knew would for the most part pay me enough to live above the poverty line.
13 years later with a flawless work record, 100s of hours of continuing education and training, and now a fry cook that can barely read or write and on parole wants to be paid almost as much as me

The best fast food workers I encounter in my area are high school or college kids. They work hard when they are not stoned and they know it's a temporary job that they will leave in a few years for better things.
Raising Canes, Chick Fil A, and Izzos are notably better staffed than your average Burger King or Wendy's.
McJobs are where people work while moving on to better things. It is where they develop their soft skills and manners and learn responsibility.

Scruffy just calculated how much he will make per hour as a resident after 8 years of school.
Anyone want to guess?

If you don't like minimum wage pay go get a meaningful trade and be productive and earn more.

I guarantee you that if minimum wage is increased and businesses start automating everything, the gov't will step in and make a ridiculous law forcing businesses to have a minimum number of real employees.
I guaran-fricking-tee it. The gov't doesn't care about efficiency.

This whole debate would end if everyone would just take an intro to microeconomics class.

frick these greedy pieces of shite.

I would think as a corporation McDonalds would automate. Corporations usually find away to make up for that profit loss like big tobacco did after all of the law suits. I could be wrong though...I often wonder why places like google, facebook, apple etc don't pack up and leave the bay area just because the work force would cost half as much elsewhere....

Fast food workers should get $15-$20 an hour!!!
But...
Get rid of the waste!
Make the counter user friendly, with touch screen service the customer can use. Automate many of the things in the back, getting rid of many positions.
A McD's could be run by three people, drive thru, cook, and manager.
