What $15 Per Hour Means For Fast Food Prices - Fortune

They could bump the minimum wage to $22 by increasing prices by 25%

They could slightly decrease food portions and raise the wage to $15 an hit without adjusting prices.....this would be a great option because America is too fat as it is.

How can you be opposed to wage increases after seeing this?

Why is starting your own business and paying your workers whatever you want not an option?
Oh, don't tell me. white supremacy.
I agree, if I own a business why can't I pay my employees below minimum wage if I wanted to?

Nobody should tell business owners how to run their business.

Sheeit, we should be trying to copy China, there are people there who are more willing to work for $2/hour, no wonder they're beating us

Because then the large majority of owners would do that, and many workers would not be able to earn any real money at all, let alone a livable wage.

And not everyone who works at Mcdonalds are bums that are lazy or stupid - some are high school students that need extra money for college, especially in an environment where college tuition is increasing.

$15/hour is nice, but they do serve pork though, so no thanks. Maybe at a Halal McDonalds though.
