What machines? For which jobs?
Who operates and maintains these machines?
Are you sure you aren’t just talking out your arse?

No. Prices would rise, or margins would be reduced. Either one is fine with me. McDonald's shareholders and their customers can pay for the labor of McDonald's employees instead of joe taxpayer.
Just another example of someone living in fantasyland.
What do you think happens when a Big Mac costs $20?

Now apply this across every good and service affected by these increased wages and tell me we won't be worse off economically. We also have to trust your claim that the taxpayers are paying for these "artificially" low wages for your argument to carry any weight.

12 pages of whether or not minimum wage should be raised and nothing to prove that what the OP is saying is actually true

All of them at some point.

Way less people for lower total pay than all the "skilled" workers they have now.

A lot fewer people, with more skill than a burger flipper.
Higher wages for unskilled labor means unemployment for many.

Kiosks for ordering food, automated drink machines, drive through kiosks, automated inventory systems

Specialists or the companies that supply the machines.
They're not hiring a guy that's only qualified to clean bathrooms to manage these machines or the inventory

The point of automation.
Which flies right past these clowns.

Are you under the impression that mass produced burger flipping and fry-dropping technology is a cutting edge phenom that we have almost cracked?

“Specialists”
“Machines”
“All of them”
“Automation”
“They’re the ones writing it off, Jerry.”

Kiosk for orders in house.
Ai for ordering in drive through.
Jack in the box has begun using robot arms for frying stuff like fries and chicken tenders.

Mind blowing how utterly stupid modern man is regarding this classic subject.

Nah man I’m sure we’ll figure out a machine that automatically pours sodas in the next 100 years or so

LINK You really think this isn't coming with never ending increases in cost for low skill labor?

You do know there are two fully-automated McDonald’s in Colorado, one in Texas, and one in California? Not sure what point you’re even making here.

Fast food companies already have the tech available, its just a matter of price.
$20 min wage will be quite the price shock, I imagine many fast food workers are going to be unemployed, and you'll cheer it on.
We used to build roads with hundreds of men and bricks, now 6 dudes with three machines can do it.
The guys operating machines make a lot more money.
