If only our Congress would say things like this to Obastards evil, lying face, he could be singing a different tune in some federal prison or asylum .
We need voices in DC more than every before in view of what this jerk has done in the last 6+ years. He has gotten away with 1,000 times more evil edicts than his predecessors have even now surpassing 9/11/01 if you count the mass destruction and death in the middle east where he and his evil regime has mangled.
America is unable and incapable of protecting its own borders and in that has ceased to be a viable nation.
Great accomplishments, Bozo, in such a short time.
Unintended consequences: it would drive Starbucks out of business too. People might be willing to spend $5 for a coffee, but not $10.
Don’t forget the new secret trade bill that the GOP is set on ramming through.
It’s an interesting idea that automation might largely replace burger-flipper labor. Imagine the feeling one might get aware of the knowledge that no one spit in your burger.
That particular McDonald's gets my order wrong about 1 out of 6 times or so (I go there because it's the closest one). Bring on the robots. F#ck their minimum wage demands. Some people aren't worth minimum wage at $2 per hour.
Well this won’t kill fast food completely.
What it will do is -
(a) allow family-run businesses to flourish (esecially those with lots of kids), cuz then the money stays in the same household, doesn’t matter what the rate of pay is;
(b) encourage the development of labor-saving machines to do the prep & cooking. We’ve seen this before with other industries, it’s only a matter of time & incentive now.
In other words, some will profit well from this situation, while others (like Obama’s peeps, who are about to become unemployed) will suffer a lot.

I don’t think they are his achievements at all. He’s just the figurehead that brought in the team to do the job. I think Jarrett is executing the moves for her white slavemaster (yes you been played again), George Soros, who probably paid a very handsome price for a team of historians, psychologists, Marxist ideologosts, and military stategists to figure out how to destroy a nation like America. Why? Bringing about the NWO will be extremely lucrative for wealthy businessmen like Soros especially if they sold their soul to the devil to become extremely wealthy and are repaying a debt before they die. The fires of hell await.
The left is irrational. Fixated on health, they encourage promiscuous, high risk sex acts, including homosexuality. Adamantly opposed to tobacco and even third hand smoke (the residue left from second hand smoke), they embrace pot smoking. Willing to fight for a woman’s right to choose, but opposed to letting her choose to drink a Big Gulp. The list goes on...
The Slimes is wrong
The reason for the drive for the $15 minimum wage is to pay for Obamacare.
The reason for the $15 minimum wage is to induce general wage inflation to cause general inflation that will ultimately devalue the US$ and thereby devalue the national debt
Coming south on I-95 I was really hungry and pulled into the Emporia Micky D’s.
No line at the drive in. Few cars in the parking lot. Placed my simple order - 3 double cheeseburgers and a large soda. Paid for the order, grabbed the bag and soda, and hit the southbound highway.
About 10 miles south I grabbed the first burger and took a bite. Crap it was a single. And there was only one other burger in the bag and it was a single also.
Yes, some folks are not worth minimum wage.
Whether the issue is health, the environment or minimum wage, the Left is really fixated on power, on control. Viewed in this context, all of their seemingly incongruous positions make sense.
Pot smoking gives them control? If we’re drugged up we can’t resist?
The federal minimum wage effective Sept. 6, 1965 was $1.25 an hour.
Adjusted for inflation $1.25/hr in 1965 would equal $9.26/hr in 2014.
Current minimum wage is $7.25/hr would be $0.98/hr in 1965. /hr in 1965
I think you're on to something with this analysis. Forget the self-righteous actions of the Left, and dig deeper to what their puppet masters really want. Massive inflation. 1970's style inflation. 10% per year kind of inflation.
So what if burgers are $1,000 (just $1,500 with a side of fries!). The trillions of dollars of debt will melt away to nothingness for the banks and government. It comes at the expense of anyone who saves, but what do they care. They're not enough savers to make any difference in an election.
I can see the future. Every man a millionaire, but living in a cardboard box.
I have come to the point I am surprised when I get a order complete as requested. When I have time I will park and go in and then check that the order is complete but that is not always an option.
Waiting for fully automatic fast food.
I recognized the location of that McDonald’s immediately. That’s Easton, Pa. Wow! A shuttered McDonald’s.
The cities of Seattle and LA have mandated the minimum.
Why.....
well, there are pension debts owed and no way in hell there will be money to pay them. If the pension values are devalued, then the cities benefit. If the pensions aren’t devalued, like Deeetroit, the cities are toast
The benefits to out of control politicians are huge
Our small town fast food restaurant is a good place for kids to gain experience at a first job. The manager runs a tight ship and still keeps it fun. Our son loves it, works hard and has even gotten a couple of tips.
Had anyone there messed up like that, they would be fired.
