$20 big mac can buy me a bag (8 pcs) of Angus beef patties, buns, cheese, and veggies. I will grill my own burgers at home.
And if you're NOT at home?
@@dr.burtgummerfan439 DYI carry out
@@dr.burtgummerfan439 Then I'll make a sandwich and take it with me.
Why you lying? $20 will prob only get you the patties, if at all. 😂
Poverty must suck. "We have _______ at home!" 😂
When all these places shut down, no one will have a $20 job. Great job Newsom.
Yea it was as pretty stupid. Now if you’re at a salary job and making less. I have one word for you. LEAVE!!! It’s horrific… but oh well.. it just gets worse and worse.
Hmmmm lets look at at in n out...oh they have been paying there employees 20+ an hour for years and still have some of the lowest prices out of any fast food restaurant......weird that they are some how successful??? oh its cause these companies can afford it they dont want to afford it. the problem is corporate greed is at an all time high all over the nation just look at there yearly margins that have been record breaking since covid
Meanwhile McDonald's has a record profit of $14.5 billion in 2023. Where is all the profit going if they can't pay employees?
Who cares if McDonald's close down the people will eat less and be healthier ppl will lose there jobs but they'll find new one
You know what Mc Donalds have been making billions and billions seens like forever how its about time to pay the piper😂😅😅
Already deleted my Starbucks,McDonald’s and pizza apps the day of the raises. They forgot one little thing in business, the consumer has the power to say NO!
State socialists don't know that.
For now. This is designed to tear down the economy. Then the government will control all food, as they want it.
I deleted Uber eats as well
It seems you're going to be healthier
In n out for now
Hopefully they go under. McDonald’s is complete and utter crap.. Make America skinny again
😂👍
Unfortunately McDonald’s is not a fast food company, it is a real estate company - look it up
For sure - most unhealthy garbage you can get...
@@stephatiowa29 Oooh... aren't you feeling smart...
@@jobyden105 lol ooooh aren’t you feeling like a troll
Way to go California! Keep voting Democrat! You are a shining example of how to create a dumpster state!
No one voted its rigged
😂😂 california has the sixth largest economy in the planet. I bet your state benefits from California's tax dollar as they pay more than they recieve unlike Mississippi, Alabama, Arkansas, Kentucky
Stfu, loser. You’re mad that Blue States take care of their voters.
😂😂😂
@@UR_AL_SHOOK_UPyup exactly
So now struggling parents who work at McDonald's will have to pay $20hr to a babysitter for their kids. This California governor is an idiot.
No sir your and idiot. This is only for fast food workers. Some small business don't qualify for the $20 dollars. This is meant for the bigger franchises.
They make $20 an hour but cant afford a Big Mac.
Don't have children if you work at McDonald's. 😂😂😂😂😂
@@PeterRabbitWhatsup Yeah like what kind of person do you think you can raise if your own skill set doesn't get you further than flipping burgers?
Remember u probably voted for that governor 😂😂😂 get what u vote for and if u didn't vote for it u can always move lol
In n out has been paying $20+ to their employees, and burgers were still less than mcd.😂😂😂
Do they have as many employees and franchises as McDonald's? Just asking since I've never seen one.
@@dr.burtgummerfan439 in and out is not a franchise. They are family owned.
In N Out is a private company. Private companies have better pay because they have no shareholders.
I don't eat at either one. The food isn't worth it. You can get better food for the same price.

Billion dollars company’s have problems paying everyone but not the CEOs
Thank you

Winner takes it all .
People who have money don't care.
😂 whos not getting payed for their hours.....
Funny how forcing higher wages in the long run just eliminates jobs. Who could have guessed?
That has never been true, it has always lifted an economy, not much of a fan of historical facts are you.
@@DaveMaroldahasatinydick No it does not, it always ends up putting people in the un-employment line or reducing their hours resulting in take home less money.
@@DaveMaroldahasatinydickyou're full of it.
Pizza Hut eliminated all of their driver delivery positions.
Also, any time the minimum wage goes up, so does the cost of living.
THAT is a historical FACT!
@@mustangecoboosthpp3869 no it doesn't, that has never been true, increased income increases spending which increases demand which increases production. Just how stupid are you?
@@jeffalbillar7625 no it's not, that fact that you have "attempted" to create an argument using an event that was unrelated provides your only "fact" is you are a complete idiot.
You can charge whatever you want, I'm not stepping foot in a McD's again and I'm not paying $20 for a BigMac slider.
I agree with you Scott_T_
Don't even get full from the meal. Screw that!
I stopped after constantly paying 2x combo for me and my daughter, 6 years ago. We only buy Happy Meal for her or 40 piece nuggets to feed 4 people. Been awhile now
McDonald's is importing sustainable ethnically raised rats for the dollar menu. Newsom nuggets, there Um Umm good.
You'll be there within the month
Not only is $20 an hour for what is meant to be a high school job rediculous, the crap service has gotten WORSE
Right!!! My family already stopped ever buying at fast food places like McDonald's and Carl's Jr because we all could NOT stand some of the insufferable obnoxious immature RUDE young people who are employed there!
pizza places need to start hiring people that know how to make a pizza right also. Normal sauce on pizza should be a ok amount on the whole pizza, order extra sauce should be 2x more not less than normal
Add 15% tip option when you pay
As a former McDonalds assistant manager and shift manager. How does the store operate during school hours if it's only for high school kids?
@@fishingfool2644 That's what YOU guys are for.
I wouldn't categorize McDonald's as food.
I just hope Newsom's policies stay in CA.
They've already devalued EVERYBODY'S dollars.
I live in California ... I don't want them to spread ... but I don't want them to stay here either hahaha.
There’s only one way for us to keep it in California. You better start voting people out. You gotta change the people in charge. This is what’s causing all the problems. Get them out of office.
As a native Californian that can’t stand greasy Gavin no other state wants to be California so go ahead and run Gav we need a good laugh
Sadly that's not the case; If you watch John Stossel's videos, one video highlights a trucker in Pennsylvania who can't expand his business due to some EPA rules from California that Pennsylvania adopted.
Less expensive to eat at a restaurant. Fast food places are doomed to fail with $20/hour employees.
In and out seems to be doing just fine. Loads of employees in every location and food is still cheap. Meanwhile, McDonald's charges 3 dollars for a hash brown before the raise.
@@micahp1775That's because In-n-Out has a cult following with massive volume and their food isn't rubbish, except for their fries, which are sad.
curbside pickup, ordered in advance. just as fast as a mcdonald's drive thru.
McDonalds needs to leave california because their 20 dollar an hour minimum wage affects every other state too.
It's early well c how it works out for McDonald's in California, I noticed prices ar Cumberland but not to.the degree in California
Yes please leave McDonald’s
Their life expectancy will increase and obesity
It’s not just McDonalds! It’s all places! Accept Gavin’s friend from Panera.
@@dave-d-grunt I agree and it’s corruption at its finest.
@@Daniel-dj6rd I agree but the fast food restaurants have been raising prices before the wage increase
Mcds is not worth that price. Cali is killing itself in such weird ways
It would be a bold move but maybe McDonald's should pull out of CA entirely.
yeah right 😂 This little hissy fit they’re throwing is barely hurting their margins, it’s still the biggest state with the highest population, most commuters, highest earners etc in the country. No way in hell they’d pull out.
@@jasoncortez1238lol
I can tell you have a degree in economics
@@jasoncortez1238Many people have already pulled out such as Tesla and Elon Musk the highest earner in the world.
@@jasoncortez1238 Its not the business that its hurting, its the normal people. When you increase min wage, prices go up on everything and peoples jobs get cut to cover the loss of paying each employee $20 now. that's $5 extra per hour per person if I remember cali is already $15 per person in these roles before. This hurts consumers and workers, not the businesses.
McDonald's already doubled their prices even before the wage hike...their prices are ridiculous.
That was a result of the previous wage hike to $15.
Yup. Raised them in Nevada months ago.
Don't worry everybody, the executives are not "struggling" financially.
20$ to flip a burger or cook French fries WTF. California is such a dump state. I will never ever go there.
Is the governor is dumb list to none sense ppl
I agree I'll put New York in that conversation too
@@jimmy-et6hrI like New York!
20$ n they still manage to mess the order up 😂
Yes because at a fancier restaurants the burger flipper doesn't also have to stock the product, restock, make multiple different items in multiple different cooking machines; do customer service, wash dishes, AND clean the bathrooms. Fast food workers work LESS than other cooks will ever do! We should just shut down these places altogether. Nevermind the fact their bosses don't pay them health insurance so they suck up our welfare too!
can't afford to go out to eat anymore
OUTLET STORES ARE A BETTER CHOICE AND AIR FRYERS.
Mom and Pop diners best bet
Instant Pot meals are the best!
@@hanskorschinowski1113 there more pricy
@@hanskorschinowski1113 my local mom an pop shop in PA charges 8 for a burger most charge more
Who the heck wants to pay almost steakhouse price for fast food? Smh
Steakhouse prices are crazy high here in California
Not steak house price that's $60 but better burger places like 5 guys red robin whats a burger fat burger are about $20 but add a tip
Steak-n-shake is not only better than McDonald’s but a lot less cheaper. You can get 2 meals for the price of one meal at McDonald’s..
@@truthhurts7729less cheaper= more expensive
California idiots....next question...
I wouldn’t pay 2 cents for any toxic fast food. They can all go out of business.
Toxic?
Bruh the air you breathe is toxic to the lungs. And so is water if you drink too much xD
Come on you would pay 2 cents for a big Mac
I quit going to McDonald’s because the prices are ridiculous.
And truthfully the food really wasn’t that great anyway.
When I was a kid, my mom told me that I better finish school or I'll be flipping burgers. Now look.
now momma will say, dont cry for a higher minimum wage and learn economics so you don't end up like California lol
I still think that makes sense...without an education it drastically reduces your options....
What about the teachers who said do your homework or you’ll be the trash man when the whole time the trash man was making more than them
Bro😂💀
If they cut staff you’re going to work twice as hard for that minimum wage.
Mcdonald's was already too expensive and now it's just not gonna happen
You'll be back within the month 😂
"How much does a Public School Teacher make in California? As of Apr 4, 2024, the average hourly pay for a Public School Teacher in California is $19.94 an hour."
Good
Sounds fair considering there students can’t read or write
@@markdegrange6445 i mean thats due to America's crappy education system (both in terms of funding and structure).
That’s not true, do your research
@markdegran do you mean “their” ? 🤦🏻♂️
Just imagine to be a part of the family which has been killing customers with this disgusting food for 50 years...
let's force them to pay 40 an hour and force them to pay healthcare for their employees.
😂 20 dollars an hour and they still can’t get my order right.
I wish he'd answer the question that he was asked twice: what is the increase in the cost of a big mac when minimum wage increases? If it increases by $5/h, and given that making a big mac (including taking the order / cleaning the table etc...) only takes a few minutes, the price increase shouldn't be more than 50c, or am I missing something?
Everyone needs to pull out of California and send a message!
It hasn’t even been 2 weeks since this started…just wait 6 months……
Newsom only raised the minimum wage on fast food restaurants, not applicable to regular restaurants. Newsom owns high end restaurants so he made sure it didn't hit his businesses.
That is right. FGN
I thought he had ties with Panera bread. That’s why it excludes places that makes and sells their own bread
Yes should have applied to all restaurant workers
@@thecwwshow8036he doesn't have ties to Panera per se.
They are big contributors to him though.
Non fastfood restaurant workers rely on tips, not wages.
They don’t deserve $20 an hour ,, they can’t even get the orders right
Ding ding ding! It's actually getting worse the more they get paid!
The only thing I never hear are CEOs cutting back on their spendings
Coworkers kid works at McDonalds he went from 36 hrs a week to 8hrs per week as soon as this went into effect.
@pladdad6921 If he was kept on 36 hours at $20 per hour that's $720 a week for working at a fast food restaurant. It would never work. Customers will tire of paying $20 for a Big Mac quickly. Right now across the country here in NJ at a diner I can get a GOOD cheeseburger with fresh toppings and an order of much better fries for under $15. Which isn't cheap, but better food and still a better price. And you get waitress service.
@@lauraann7816what's Connecticut excuse for having a $18 big Mac meal and no $20 minimum wage. Have you travel to Europe $11 dollars for a big Mac meal and employees make over $20. You should travel a little. Inflation was at %6 yet mcdonalds raise their prices 100% no minimum wage hike needed. In n out pays their employees over $20 in california and only raise their prices by 25 cents and still profit a billion dollars. A double double meal is $10. And it's a higher quality burger than McDonald's.
Hahaha. Welp, enjoy the pay raise!
@@felipenunez2058In and Out has a different business model as they don't franchise and have limited locations. In Europe, I think you're referring to the Netherlands I'm which they pay like 35% in taxes so it's like they are making $15-16/hr. Connecticut is just outrageous.
@@fortunateson2 like I said fast food in Europe doesn't have this issue. They pay well and the prices are relatively lower now than the US. Europe doesn't pay their wait staff $2.50 and have them depend on tips. Tipping in Europe is frown upon.
Big Mac was not even worth the five dollars much less $20. 😂. I’ll never go there. They will go out of business. No way this is sustainable.
I agree 1000 percent. I may buy it 2 for 5,..... 3 bux max but certainly not 20. They lost me as a customer 10 to 15 years ago.
So stop voting Democrat. McDonald's didn't make this choice. Governor Nuisance and his cronies forced it on them.
The last time i went to McDonald's, it was over 12 bucks for two big macs...i was in the drive thru lane and drove right out of there with no food. That happened five years ago, and i cook my own burgers now
@@williammeszaros3382yep, they take advantage of the dumbassses that don't use their app
Econ 101 says that if you have to keep your margins in an increasing labor cost environment, and labor is the single biggest cost to any enterprise, you either: a. Shut down operations, b. Streamline the labor force (layoffs), c. Increase cost of goods and services. None of these options are remotely palatable especially in the inflationary environment we are facing. Not sure why the loons in Sacramento thought up this insane idea, but now we have it and we wait to see just how much damage this will cause to this once great state.
There's been record corporate profits since 2019.
$20 hr and still screwed up my order.

Its a start. Do it for 20 years and you would be amazed how much you saved.

The McDonald's in Fort Worth Tx is almost fully automated. The food comes out to your car by a moving track. Just the cooks are people. That might change one day.
No more Mc Donalds or chain foods for me, that's Posin garbage food anyway. It's time to find alternative dine out menus. Thanks, Governor Nuisance, for destroying the fast-food industry!
LOL, Governor Nuisance. Good one!!!
Destroying the fast food industry ever since I remember they been increasing the price and salary to you can make five dollars an hour if you like but I rather make more money life is a cycle 🔁 and things evolve
Most restaurants are poison. Most restaurant food is loaded with salt, sugar, and unhealthy fats. Sorry but it's the truth. If you want to eat healthy eat at home mostly.
Governor General Nuisance. Because he is and will always be Forever.
I just go next doors from my McDonald’s to the country school and get a single serving of mash potatoes and gravy with a chicken leg for $3.80 cents. 🙂
$20 for fast food workers is insaneee!
That's a speck over 40k per year. Not a big deal in 2024. Get real.
@@lenurbanhigh schoolers don't need 40k a year
20hr is nothing here in California!
@@lenurban It is a big deal.. very low or no skill people don't deserve $20 an hour in 2024 or any year. Get real.
When I was 18, I made $5.15 an hour at Del Taco as a manager. I'm 45 now.
It was a job as a kid to make a few bucks and have a first job. It's not a money maker. Minimum wage is for minimum work. Nowadays, and since covid hit, not once has any fast food restaurant got our order correct. Covid hit what 4 years ago. They still can't get the orders right today. I've now given up on fast food. I keep food in my car for long trips so I don't have to stop at a fast food restaurant.
Oh and I've lived in California my entire life, this $20 is just killing restaurants. A lot of people I know have already moved out of California in these last years because of Governor nuisance.
Everyone feels sorry for the fella owning 18 McDonald’s
I bet that franchisee voted for Dumocrats. If so, you got what you voted for.
Are you crazy?? He is the type of American who believes in free enterprise. And in case you don’t understand this, small business is the backbone of our economy and the birthplace of innovation.
Probably not, business owners aren't the Democrat base.
I am a democrap and we pushing for people to lose their jobs to manchines. We have money you don't
It's crazy Democrats cry when they vote for it 😂😂😂
@@KralTube2 The Majority of small business owners in the USA are registered democrats.... look it up.
A double edge sword. I used to work in retail. Every time the cost of expenses went up so did our food prices. We the workers never did see a wage increase in our wages. At the end of the day if I wanted to earn more I had to find a construction job. I did! And never looked back at retail!.. At the end of the day, you need to look after yourself, no one wise will.
Ask the governor about lower payroll taxes , ask the county about lower real estate taxes , ask the utility companies about lower rates , and ask about the Panera Bread deal . Ask the farmers how they receive all their subsidies .
McDonalds won’t suffer because the CEO said he will take a 7 million pay cut to bring his salary down to 10 million, he said it will be hard on his family but by doing so he can cut the wholesale prices that franchises wii have to pay to offset the $20 minimum wage.
reduce the hrs to part time, raise the price...that's what's going to happen...

Well, the voters did ask for this.
Are there any full time workers in these sectors? I thought Obamacare killed those off decades ago.
It already is happening
Keep in mind that the McDonald's execs not only voted for Newsome, but probably contributed to his campaign as well.

Obviously they didn’t give as much as the Panera execs.

Why don’t you tell us all how to eat, then you can move on to other topics?
No one is forced to pay for food from McDonald's.
Yes
They have bagels now because Newsome gave an exemption to his pal at Panera Bred 😬
He really didn’t answer any questions
I heard rat is inexpensive and can be sustainably sourced from NY. Maybe it's a trade secret?
Because he is a Democrat
$45 dollars an hour in the midwest is becoming lower living wage. I couldn't imagine making only $20 in California.
These prices have to be met so that CEOs don't see a reduction in profit in their payxheck
And that’s where the root of the problem lies: the executives and CEOs don’t want to make less money. So be mad at them, not the workers for wanting higher wages to pay their bills. Why is that so hard to understand? Is it because it’s easier to be mad at the workers because people can complain to them instead of the CEOs or what?
More importantly the customers are struggling to feed themselves at these prices. We have to eat at home.
McDonald's prices rose outrageously BEFORE the new wage law. Some things doubled. I don't know how the wage law has changed things because I quit McDonalds months ago. My opinion, many fast foods raised prices way more than inflation and then used it as an excuse. But it's really just a greed move.
The artificially inflated wages exacerbate existing inflation.
They were just planning for the future by helping people adjust to upcoming price increases.
😂 wages inflation only accounts for 10% of the increase in cost, the lions share goes to profits, maybe learn to read "Doctor"@@dr.burtgummerfan439
Are you forgetting about the $15 wage?
@@Exxeron-ob3tvthen they shouldn't be b**ching about wages going up
McDonald's gross profit for the twelve months ending December 31, 2023 was $14.563B, a 10.26% increase year-over-year. McDonald's annual gross profit for 2023 was $14.563B, a 10.26% increase from 2022.
So they have money to pay there workers.
Former manager here: coming from someone who hates corporate greed more than anything, even with those jacked up prices we barely stayed in business.
I remember McDonald’s was a part time job and an entry level job for teens now they want to make them pay like it’s a career
No you don't
McDonalds was a viable career choice for DECADES (up until the 2000s/2010s)
those who worked at McDonalds back in the 60s are making the equivalent of what higher pay blue collar jobs make today.
@@TheAircool1 yes I do it’s an entry level job and for people who wants to make extra money not a full time job unless you don’t need a whole lot of money I mean if you don’t like the pay get a better job and stop being lazy and learn some new skills
@@joeanthony8087 If everyone did that then 75% of Mcdonalds restaraunts would close.
@@TheAircool1 that’s why it’s a part time job and entry level job
@@joeanthony8087 thats the issue
Businesses want it to be a part time/entry levrl job but require the number of people seen in full time career jobs to function properly.
30% of the jobs in this country are minimum wage.
Yet the number of people who are aiming for an entry level/part time job (high schoolers, college students, recent graduates) only make up around 15-20% of the population.
Its simply unsustainable and may lead to the service industry collapsing in the future.
We're already seeing the effects of this. Many minimum wage jobs in major cities are dealing with labor shortages, since these jobs do not pay enough to live on.
Plus, with the largest section of the workforce (baby boomers) retiring, there is a LOT of higher paying positions opening up.
Even states with low minimum wages are seeing most minimum wage jobs in cities pay far higher than legally required just to get the minimum staff required to function.
What a clown show in CA. They used to be ahead of the curve, now they are in a tailspin
Democrat policies do not work.
It’s destroying our state with total chaos!!
Some actually believe there needs to be wage increases to keep up with the cost of living, when in fact, raising wages increases the cost of living. Wow. Common sense is leaving faster than ever before.
Wow someone who actually understands how this all works. Thank you.
Base pay workers make more money when they improve their work skills and get a raise for better job performance.
Good thing if you increase wages you pay more taxes. Someone has got to foot that bill.
Bingo!
Haven't ate at Macs Superclub for two years now since they started boycotting me by price. Use to eat there at least weekly. Now it's a two way boycott.
This franchise owner is very thoughtful and did not take the easy chum being thrown out by the interviewer.
As a fast food worker, I am now at $20 an hour. But the irony here is that I am making way less now. Why? Because any business that has to pay $20 an hour has slashed employee hours to part time. At $16.50 an hour, I was getting 6 to 8 hour shifts. At $20 an hour, I am only getting 4 hour shifts and somedays, only 3 hours. So I have taken a significant pay cut. And with California auto insurance having just gone up 33%, and rents that just keep going up and up, I don't know how I am going to survive. Thank You Governor Gruesome.
May Californians will find out that the real minimum wage is $0.00
Hello kiosks -
Years ago, workers at Newark Airport "won" their "Fight for $15".
Result?
Now I check-in, and order meals at most places past security, via a kiosk.
Looks for a surcharge for ordering via a person, or put another way, a discount for using a kiosk.
Absolutely no offense to bank tellers, but they're now called manual ATMs.
The terms 'workers' and 'Newark' don't even belong in the same sentence.

F McDonald’s and their BS. They must be so down on their times charging $15 for Big Macs
Noticeably fewer customers at our local McDonald's lately, you go in at lunchtime and practically nobody's there. Line at the drive through is also shorter and it used to be backed up out to the street at noon. At the In-n-Out around the corner, lines are about the same as before.
You're not supposed to retire at McDonald's. It's a starter job to get you ready for the real world.
Exactly. These jobs were never meant to be bring home the bacon jobs, rather stepping stones.
I will never step a foot on McDonald's property again, not until they bring back .29 a burger on Wednesday!!! Ya...
Last time I went there my daughter wanted extra fries so I got a large with her happy meal , $4.50 for some fries , I thought I will never buy that again
I never went back to McDs since they told me to fill my own cup.
I can't feel sorry for someone that owns 18 McDonalds.
This is a quality of life issue. Politics is a stupid game. We are all human who deserve a specific level of life.
But how does InNOut do it then? They already paid more than $20 and items are lower priced than McDonald’s. 🤔
Lower rent and overhead
@@TonydaGM so they’re just better at running a business, basically?
Go figure
McDonald’s has highest profits cause they own the land that restaurant sits on plus franchise fees and franchisees have to buy their food and only their food.. that’s how they have record high profits I doubt the food has anything to do with it
Actually, they were also paying $16 hr. before this. And yes, they did raise prices on April 1st.
Overpriced piece of bread because you can never find the beef
McDonald's is importing sustainable ethnically raised rats for the dollar menu. Newsom nuggets, there Um Umm good.
I have a hard time feeling sorry for a man that owns 18 Mcdonald's.

I haven’t been to that place pace in over a year now and has been the best decision I have ever made
He will try raising prices cutting hours. Eventually sales will drop followed by closing the restaurants.
When government meddles with free market economics, bad things happen. Always.
That has never been true you ridiculous cretin
So you’re for no minimum wage then? How about child labor laws? Health codes?
Free market economy = big business can do what ever the heck they want. Rules are made for a reason.
Dumb take guy. Come on.
Time to boycott McDonald’s everywhere the food sucks it is still expensive no matter where you buy it
Crazy that they’re being forced to actually pay their employees
I went to McD's days after the scam increase with the labor unions (calling a spade a spade), and the cashier actually told us to use the kiosk. I pay cash. Kiosk does not accept cash. $20/hr clown throws a hissy fit because he's paying that much and now he can be a jerk about it. They cant even get your orders right and now they have an attitude problem.
"You raised the minimum wage to $20 an hour, which sounds great for all the politicians who pushed this through. Now, it will generate more state taxes. That's what it's all about - generating money for the government."
Exactly u got it u will pay more tax like other 🎉
inflation
It won’t get more tax revenue for the state. The food that was an affordable option for people will be priced so high that they won’t be able to afford it. The franchisee will have to go out of business and declare bankruptcy since they’ll lose all their investment money. The employees will all go on unemployment. So no tax revenue for the state. These franchises already have to cover the inflated prices of all their products and the extremely high fuel cost to get them delivered. There won’t be places to buy a quick meal for a reasonable price, nor will there be jobs for people just starting out, or without a solid skill set and education.
Young adults will now join the millions of new illegal immigrants on welfare….
Good job voting blue California
I went to McD's for the first time in years for the filet fish friday. I noticed the fish was 30% smaller and the fish patty was real thin and then to add insult to injury the large fries were old and cold like cardboard. A couple of years ago when I stopped to get a big mac combo after a 10 hour drive before going back up the hill, I thought the $10 price was outrageous. Now before the $20 all places are beyond outrageous and the quality REALLY SUCKS. They call ALL go out of business for all I care and they need to stop accepting EBT payments which is the same as making the taxpayer pay for their stupid prices.
I got a double hamburger recently for the first time in a year and the patties were TINY. I think I ate it in three bites!
@@mr.d.572 not much bigger than a cookie. total rip off. Had not been there in years, won't ever be back.
Those are the only people going to these fastfood places.because all the customers are on welfare.
Politicians should be required to take a course in economics to be eligible for office.
I am disgusted that I worked my butt off to earn multiple degrees and specialized training, and now a high school drop out flipping burgers is making just about as much as I am for being too lazy to have any ambition in life.
No more Happy Meals !
It's is NOT the wage that is the problem. It is the rent and the increase in the cost of the food. There is a reason the government took food costs out of the inflation numbers. Until we start addressing this, we all are gonna be fooled by the labor facade.
Inflation is forty percent.that the real number.biden people play games with numbers
18 McDonald's, The poor man i feel sorry for him. Do you need a hand out!

A Big Mac meal in Vegas cost $11.59 with taxes. Free ketchup
Why do they keep saying "humans" like WTF!? LOL
He should be a politician. He’s excellent at avoiding questions and side stepping them.
My new years resolution was to never buy fast food anymore and not only has it been very profitable but I've put on more good weight.
Layoffs coming great job newsom
Who is going to pay 20.00 dollars for a Big Mac? McDonald’s should just close and pull out of California.
A Big Mac delivered by Uber is $6.89 in the SF Bay Area...the $20 Bic Mac is BS scare tactics.
