You can finish the meal off with a nice one dollar cigarette.

Oh, it’s going to have a profound impact alright, but not what they think. These people are nuts.

So, the State of New York is nationalizing the operations of all fast-food dives?

It’s just a set up to demonize employers so the puppet masters can usher in socialism...

And, once they get it then can complain, like Oregon, that they made to much money and lost out on government handouts because of it and now want their hours slashed. The low information voter......just stupid.

The Welcome Mat will be out in the surrounding states.

Then, solve a problem with illegal immigration with a $20 per hour minimum wage for all construction and manufacturing employees.

So New York is worried that it has driven too many high earners out of the state with its insane tax policies so they are looking for a way to drive low wage jobs out of the state too as a way to balance it out.

Why are they targeting only 1 industry...if they really cared about “the people in the shadows”.

A taco bell burrito just increased in price in NY.

My thought also. Why stop at fast food operations?
What about fast food that is family owned and operated? just a slight change to the definition of fast food ...
Do democratic politicians that donate heavily to unions get a waiver on their fast food franchises?

Biden predicted the $15 wage for fast-food workers would galvanize efforts across the country.
++++
But those efforts, well underway I'm betting, will be aimed at developing automation systems that will replace those over-priced fast-food workers.

Or the old Hew York-style lunchenetts, where food was behind a glass door, and you paid and opened it to get your sammich. Easily done with credit/debit cards.
