>>5015002so let's say of that total, 210 thousand are base workers, who get $9/h, 30h/week, 48 weeks on a year
>9 * 30 = $270/week>270 * 48 = $12,960/year>210,000 * 12,960 = ~$2.7 billion / yearnow let's increase their salary to $15/h, this means an increase of 6 dollars
>15 * 30 = $450/week>450 * 48 = $21,600/year>210,000 * 21,600 = ~$4.5 billion / yearit'd cost an additional 1.8 billion a year for mc donalds, and OP is complaining that the CEO makes $14 million for a far more important job?

if they increase prices to maintain profit margins, less people are going to buy food there and they also lose money
