    This focus is kinda weird ngl. Why is fast food entertainment being protected and promoted? Let the market crush this shit - we don’t need more McDonald’s garbage in this world.

      Welp, decades of data can tell you that “letting the market crush this shit” ain’t working.

        You and I have very different definitions on what it means to let the market do it’s thing, I think.

        You aware how heavily subsidized beef is, for McDonald’s sake?

      I don’t think your post makes sense.

      Fast food is being targeted for not paying their workers a living wage. This is the opposite of protection and promotion.

      The government is stepping in because the ‘free market’ hasn’t corrected this and won’t correct it.

      Am I misunderstanding where you’re coming from?

        In a way it does protect the market by forcing it competitive. The market definitely has the power to squeeze fast food out of existence.
