These jobs are for high school students, college students or those looking to make a little extra money. NOT to raise a family of 2 or 3 or 4!!! Get an education and better yourself, raising minimum wage to $15/hour is absurd and promotes laziness. I would understand $9 or maybe even $10 per hour but $15 is out of control.

Since when parents determined it was their responsibility to pay for their kids college. More than half the kids in college aren't required to work at all. Those that do are in college so they can get higher quality job.
Don't get me wrong, i agree. Fast food work should be a stepping stone job. But for many reasons, it's not so much anymore.
I personally would let them strike and hire all new employees. Those places are designed for high turnover rate and that would take care of any thoughts of that happening again.
I'm also all for the freedom to assemble. if they succeed, more power to them. But i think if they strike they'll be reminded that you need a skilled position to strike. Otherwise, you just get replaced.
