I need help finding a kiosk play to capitalize on Biden’s $15 minimum wage
No doubt will cost counter workers jobs
My research has come up with no standouts.

Thanks

Will there be as many counter workers anyway? I feel like most fast food places are just going to stick with drive through only.

You can use Cognizant for a play on offshoring

Most of the fast food places in the PNW are quickly converting.

McD will be the first to use the kiosks. Already in place in most of EU

Yep, say goodbye to kids manning the counter, supermarket checkout people, etc. This is not going to turn out the way the Dems think it is. There are just a lot of jobs that aren't worth close to $15 per hour (which translates to $30k per year). Total lack of understanding of basic economics.

Oh, I think they understand. They just don't give a F as long as their idiotic policies translate into more dependent voters keeping them in office.

They definitely understand that this will increase low wage unemployment thus helping to usher in UBI to get more people dependent on government to live.

Making a standard minimum wage like that makes no sense at the national level. $15/ for a Taco Bell worker in Picayune, MS is wayyyy different than that same wage in Boston.

Doubling min wage after you just shutdown the economy and businesses are closing down at a record pace.

What could go wrong?

Nothing like bitching about stagnant lower wages when encouraging rampant poor legal/illegal immigration.

I sometimes wonder if politicians wipe their arse with their toothbrush

The get it

They’ll demand $15/hour and then when the firings come, they’ll blame greedy capitalists for layoffs

The ones that don’t “get it” are the idiots that are satisfied to work for minimum wage
