    I am aware. That doesn’t change the fact that is is a result of corporate greed.

      Umm… no. They couldn’t afford it and got rid of the employees. Businesses are not charities. If the employees created 20 dollars an hour in value, they would have been kept. They didn’t. So they will be let go. Laws have consequences

        Right. And that is exactly why taxes need to be increased on the parent corporations back to the 90% level we had when Republicans weren’t greedy, self-obsessed paychopaths.

        Bullshit. Mcdonalds pays ~$22/hr in Denmark. If they can afford it there, they can afford it here.
