You lot are so unsympathetic this could mean some people will have to wait another year for their private islands where's your humanity!

It will be ever so devastating for their employees to actually be able to afford a meal at their own restaurant.

Whatever will they do with all of these new customers that are also their own employees.

They’re doing just fine in Australia where the minimum wage is higher than that

Oh noooo other restaurants managed even without universally well known name to back them up. How could Mcdonald ever survive? The Mcdonalds in Europe have to be in shamble, surely.

they just pass the bill on to the consumer. from the dollar menu to the 1 2 3 dollar menu. soon it'll be the "under $5 club" but the cheapest item will be a small fry for $3.79

They already pay $20/hour in my area. I am not in Cali.

Every time they have made this complaint in the past, it has been a lie.

I live in Sacramento. I'm fine with all the McDonalds franchises in California shutting down.

These prices have nothing to do with their actual cost. The "inflation" is them raising prices arbitrarily to flirt with the line of when poor people will finally revolt. They are just flying closer to the Sun by choice today, these aren't in reaction to any real world choice or condition that the business needs to make to "survive"

ITT: People with no idea how franchises work.

I think people know, but it’s going to be like they treat landlords. Ideologically opposed. EDIT: thanks for the downvote for a neutral prediction. I’d like to thank the Academy, Spez, and users like you.
