So nobody wants to answer my question about a living wage, especially in a place like California?

I will have a go, if you can't afford to live here go back where you came from or go to a state where you can. This is a country built on capitalism, not handouts.

So if McDonald's saves money by using kiosks, those displaced workers will go someplace else, as you suggest. That's fine. But as long as McDonald's employs people full-time, they should pay them a livable minimum wage...surely you don't begrudge them making that from a huge, wealthy multi-billion dollar company like McDonald's. It's not a handout...it's minimal wages. I was in a union as a grocery store bag boy at 15, I was above minimum wage as a result...was it livable as an adult? No.

A livable minimum wage?
$10.00 an hour goes a lot further in Oklahoma than it does in California.
Counter work at a fast food establishment is a mindless, no experience necessary job.
The cost of your Happy Meal will sky rocket...
Entry level jobs that a kiosk can perform says it all. You better come up with a better plan for your future.
Entry level jobs are there to train people how to work, show up on time, take the initiative, interact with others, etc.
If workers don't like the wages they are making at Mickey D's, they too can, will and should go elsewhere.

Yes it is a livable wage. If it's not a livable wage, your Union isn't doing the job you pay them to do, which is to extract wages.

That is why unions are a major part of the problem. Minimum wage jobs are not meant to support a family, they are a starting point in separating the makers from the takers.

It is just a liberal way to extract more taxes from the public, income tax and sales tax of higher priced burgers.

Apparently they're looking at Bernie too...

Beyond the glare, federal investigators and FBI agents started to pull apart the $10 million financial arrangement. They showed up at Burlington College to sift through hard drives, audit reports and spreadsheets. They began to interview donors, board members and past president Carol Moore. “I was contacted and spoke with an FBI agent numerous times last spring, again last summer,” Moore told Vermont Public Radio in May 2017, “and recently, maybe a month ago.”

A second letter to federal prosecutors in early 2016 alleged that Senator Sanders’ office had pressured the bank to approve the loan application submitted by Jane Sanders. “Improper pressure by a United States Senator is a serious ethical violation,” the letter asserted.

That article points out that the letters in question were written by Trump's Vermont campaign manager.

Have you ever listened to that idiot on the radio? I swear I though it was The Onion radio hour or something and like, after about 10 minutes or so, I came to the shocking awareness that he's real...and he has fans! We really are doomed as a nation. And when you start talking about "tyranny," then geniuses like the shooter at the ballpark the other day decide that the Second Amendment gives them the right to take down our tyrannical leaders.

You know the shooter was a lefty socialist supporter.
Typical snowflake, afraid of the truth.

I would bet that his nuttiness included a nice dose of your dim witted Second Amendment reasoning. What's a snowflake anyway? Or a cuk? I like how your frat has its own terminology. Reminds me of high school!
