Union wages are tied to min wage, which is why unions are always pushing for increases.
Hamburger flippers are paid what they are worth.
Most are paid more than they are worth from my experience.
And/or to inflation and this is an inflation causing proposal.
Fast food hamburgers can be flipped easily by machine. In fact, the entire operation from order taking to preparation to delivery of product to car window and payment could be automated.
The unions don’t care. The people laid off will just be acceptable collateral damage. Their goal is to raise more money to elect more socialist Rats.
Gee....pay double for a spit burger or don’t....not a hard question to answer.
Exactly! People are so ignorant of economics that it doesn’t occur to them that prices, wages, etc. have a basis in reality. The reason a pro athlete is paid millions and a school teacher paid thousands is that there aren’t any school teachers who can hit a 90-mile-an-hour fastball, but most people can teach a first grader to read.
Government can’t just wave a magic wand and fix wages and prices or create wealth or jobs. It’s insane to believe otherwise.
