No more "happy" meals.
More than 200 protesters, some current or former fast food employees, rallied for a $15-per-hour minimum wage for fast food employees outside a McDonald's restaurant on 7 Mile in Detroit Dec. 5, 2013.

Shoot, with houses going for $1 in Detroit, that’s like getting paid 15 houses per hour. Seems a bit excessive.

The local franchise owners should try a week long experiment.
Give the workers $15 an hour for one week, and raise the prices commensurate with the wage. Then see how many burgers are sold.............

These retards are “protesting” themselves right out of jobs. Raise the minimum wage to 15 bucks in Soetoro’s “fundamentally transformed Amerika” and the college kids will be taking all of these jobs. These high school dropouts better start learning how to pick strawberries and lettuce and find a new job before the GOOBers pass amnesty.

You can make $15 per hour. You just have to provide more value than that to your prospective employer.

RE: Detroit protesters demand super-sized $15-per-hour minimum wage for fast food workers
The City of Detroit is bankrupt. I guess this isn’t enough for these protesters. They want to bankrupt private businesses too... way to go jokers.

The ironic part is 15 bucks/hr is about what the UAW 2nd tier makes these days.

The protest was organized by D15, a conglomeration of multiple organizations, including Service Employees International Union (SEIU) and the National Action Network (NAN)), founded in 1991 by Reverend Al Sharpton.

Take a machine gun and shoot them all. Then replace them with people that will be more than happy to have a job.

The same kind of economic dumb that drove Detroit into bankruptcy, and they’re too dumb to connect the dots to realize it.
