Fast Food Restaurants, Minimum Wage And The Department of Labor

Legislative issues beyond any doubt are fascinating and the 2016 Presidential Election was unquestionably ready to measure up. Since Donald Trump kicked Hillary Clinton's political backside we see he's bustling topping off his Presidential Cabinet with corporate businessmen, who he accepts will 'Make America Great Again' and they could conceivably. His pick for the Department of Labor secretary is Andrew Puzder, CEO of CKE Restaurants (parent organization to Hardee's and Carl's Jr.) and that puts forth a gigantic expression about the lowest pay permitted by law laws. It likewise sends a major message to worker's guilds in the US - to be specific, no more obstructionism or BS.

The lowest pay permitted by law at $15.00 would be unsustainable for most independent companies and diversifying organizations, other than that it isn't suitable for human versus automated work. On the off chance that $15/hr. turns into the new standard, then organizations will quickly utilize robots to do a large portion of those occupations at the base of the compensation scale. That incorporates fast-food eateries, farming work, and auto washes (something I know somewhat about).

There was a fascinating article in The Post - A Conservative Perspective titled; "McDonald's: Robots Waiting in the Wings, If Minimum Wage is Increased," on the 30th of May 2016, by Kerry Lear, a Guest Writer

The article expressed; "The eatery business is the second biggest in the nation. In 2013, 3,653,168 were utilized in fast food alone. The overall revenue for eateries is around 5-6%. Most administrators burn through 33% of their income on worker compensations and wages. All things considered, it's not shocking that eatery brands are inclining toward more financially savvy work. Wendy's will introduce more than 6,000 stands in their US stores before the year's over and the chain Panera Bread as of now have these self-serve booths accessible in their stores," and "I was at the National Restaurant Show yesterday and on the off chance that you take a gander at the automated gadgets that are coming into the eatery business - it's less expensive to purchase a $35,000 mechanical arm than it is to procure a representative who's wasteful making $15 a hour packing French fries - it's gibberish and it's extremely ruinous and it's inflationary and it will bring about an occupation misfortune over this nation like you are not going to accept," said previous McDonald's (MCD) USA CEO Ed Rensi amid a meeting on the FOX Business Network's Mornings with Maria."

Let's be honest, a large number of us hit the market now and utilize the self-checkout framework as opposed to getting in line for a clerk. In like manner we frequently hit the ATM instead of sitting tight for a bank employee. Before long, shoppers will decide on the lower costs without the work, and entrepreneurs will profit and have less bother, less claims, and more benefits. Dear Minimum Wage Debaters, be careful with your unintended results.
