FYI
CEO make 8.75 million a year which by the way would take a line worker 114 years working 24x7 365 to equal. Maybe he can take a paycut.

the article i just linked said over 12 million.
they made a four freaking BILLION dollar profit last year. it's horseshit that they can't afford to pay more.

i think we should remove their tax breaks and other incentives, etc that they receive to equal the amount of federal aid their employees receive.
the woman in the link above, has worked for mcd's ten years-not one raise in that entire time.
