So lets get this straight. A union worker in NYC working at a Burger King makes $30 an hour, because it is NYC. And a union worker at Burger King Berea should make $30 an hour?
It is called cost of living, regional adjustments. If 60% of the people are union workers making $50 an hour, could the other 40% afford anything?
Ryan, you should go into politics. Then you could tell ceo's that they should only make $500m a year.
People work for all kinds of companies for all sorts of reasons and for all types of wages. The owners of those companies are the reason our country is so great. It is not goverment, it is US the people. The number one cost to a company is labor. Why do you think some have gone elsewhere. The person who makes $24 thinks he should make $30 and the person that makes $12 thinks he should make $24. Be happy with what you are making now, so many are not making anything.
