This is precisely how I feel re: stock buybacks, which is similar story on much larger scale. McDonalds is a particularly active buyer of its own stocks, though it seems to have done little to move its stock prices, not to mention its employees' wages...

Donnie inherited a strong and growing economy. With that he had one job - raise wage levels. He failed miserably as predicted.

The GOP isn't bashing McDonalds because its in the grip of the Libertarian madness. It is astonishing to most folks what corporations can do that the Libertarians will accept as right and proper.

It would be interesting to know how much of that $6 billion is going towards computer kiosks to replace actual employees taking your order. I bet its sizable.

I’ve read an article about hourly wages and the McDonald’s kiosks in a PA newspaper in which the operators said the kiosks and table service would require them to hire MORE people, not let people go.

You do realize individual franchises pay McDonald's workers, not McDonald's corporate, yes? Not to say they shouldn't earn more, but we need a federal minimum wage law.

Because even the voices in "public broadcasting" in the US speak for the rich. Bernie is one of the few whose words echo amongst the masses, because he can see through the distorted view of the world. Because the inequality is laughably skewed. :(

This should not be an issue of political parties calling out corporations. We already know they will not do that in numbers or as an official stance of the party. It's up to the people and direct action to get things like this into the public consciousness.

Perhaps those people know that a job at a rate you are willing to work is better than that job being given to a kiosk?
