From the Las Vegas Sun:
Las Vegas workers have walked off their jobs at Subway, McDonald's and other fast food restaurants to call for $15-an-hour wages.
The demonstrations Thursday morning coincide with other strikes planned in about 50 cities across the country. Protests in Las Vegas are centered at two McDonald's restaurants and a KFC.
Organizers say fast food workers are getting paid a median wage of $9.67 an hour and are forced to rely on public assistance to make ends meet.
They're calling for higher wages and the right to form a union without interference from employers. http://www.lasvegassun.com/news/2013/aug/29/nv-fast-food-strike-vegas/
Seriously, a fast food worker making $15 hour? For what, flipping burgers? Sorry, but if you plan on supporting a family on McDonalds wages, you are a very, very stupid person. These jobs are supposed to be for teenagers to gain work experience, not adults raising a family.
And if you don't like the wages at fast food restaurants, don't work there, go work at a place that pays you more. Oh wait... you chose to work there and you just may be too stupid to work another job that pays more.
And form a union without interference? Yeah, right. More stupidity.
So, to the idiots who went out and protested, maybe you ought to get experience and education to improve your life and actually earn a higher wage.
Otherwise, just shut the hell up.
