    Good for them, good for business.

      Another boomer that doesn’t understand the way the world is currently. It’s good for business, sure, just not you know, the people who work in our country and try to provide for their families. But that’s what you’re all about, forwarding the agenda of faceless corporations that make the rich richer and the poor poorer. Baa baa, little sheep.

        Why don’t you open a business with some other Leftist buddies and show everyone how to do it?

        Conservatives always wonder that. Instead of standing on the sideline throwing spit balls, lead the way.

        Do you really want to put all those small business franchises out of business? The ultimate consequence of what the Left wanted here – to make big corporations responsible for the actions of franchisees – would have that result. There would be no reason to have franchisees if responsibility and liability fell on the corporation for anything the franchisee did.

        I swear. You must have learned economics on Sesame Street. The fact you don’t understand both sides of this issue is not flattering.

        My family was provided for by working for prosperous, profitable “big business”. How much time do you spend “hating” your employer? Maybe you’re self employed and give all your money to your employees. Yeah, right.

        Jon, spoken like a true Commie. Hate to tell you, but this is a Capitalist country no matter how much you want it to be Venezuela.

      Good for them, bad for their workers. Which, typically in turn, yes, is good for their business. Then again, when you are serving garbage, it stands to reason you’ll treat your employees the same.

    I have walked into McDonald’s twice in the last 25 years. Both times, it was to drop the kids off at the pool and then back on the road.

    McDonald’s does an excellent job with waste management. They just shove beneath a sesame bun.
