Central, do you seriously wait for me to post about ag? Yes, 13 year old kids are worth $20 an hour. Got it. All I was saying is you exclude newbies from the workforce when you set a high wage.
So I can take it you think $20 an hour is good for fast food too. Great! Enjoy paying $9 for a crap hamburger...and if you don't eat fast food, or vegetables, stfu already. Grow all your own but leave the rest of us out of your totally ignorant and imbecilic remarks. 😊 OH, and be sure to buy all your produce from out of the country so you can support their economy, regulations, and $8/day wages. Keep encouraging illegals to pour over our borders and destroy our country, it's working.

Oh they will listen, to the humming of automation while you sit in your mommy and daddys basement with out a job

I am comfortably retired and will sit in my own basement thank you (without a job other then exploring the internet).

I think I’d be much more satisfied with paying the prices IF the food looked like what is on the menu pictures.

They have “food artist” to make the food look good. Actually you would not want to eat the burger they are photographing since they add things to make it look better.

“They have ‘food artist’ to make the food look good.”

My friend used to do food photography for (IIRC) Marriott when they had airport concessions. Most of the food wasn’t food, but made out of plaster or resin or something.

the only “fast food” restarant is IN-N-Out, and only as a treat, and only when i have to travel to northrn cal and southern Org. clean and fast and the employees are paid very well.
