    If your business can’t survive without paying slave wages then your business shouldn’t survive.

        They got a PPP loan.

        but the question is. Did they use the PPP loan like they were supposed to?

        because so many of those PPP loans just ended up being free money for owners/executives and the bottom rung workers who needed it most didnt see a dime.

      And they don’t get that it’s not the regulations demanding fair wages that are the enemy. It’s low wages and high costs for their potential customers that is killing their business.

      Came here to say the same thing. It’s crazy how these people put on blast how they basically don’t have a viable business. Guess it doesn’t take brains or business sense to open a restaurant though. Just about the worst kind of business you could open.

        Also why is their voice so fucking amplified. Like why are we forced to hear their whiny bitching about how they have to pay a marginally better wage to their employees. ABC just went out of their way to find one annoying prick and gave them a platform to spew their procapitalist garbage. And if you have ever eaten at a place like this, the food is the most generic bland shit imaginable. These are the pricks who are complaining, exactly the kinda entitled fuckers you would expect.

      Yep.

      Plenty of places are thriving with higher minimum wage.

      This restaurant crying this hard isnt because they cant afford the wages. Its that owners grew fat on the exploitation, and will now have to slim their excess to pay proper, fair wages.
