1. Hidden costs in that burger..
Tue Sep 5, 2017, 04:21 AM

Other taxpayers support the underpaid workers, while the
companies pocket the difference.
I'd like to see a breakdown of the real cost of a burger if
the community health services, earned income tax credit,
etc., etc., were added in.
It would be so much simpler to let the employee make a
decent wage and not need all these 'help' programs, administered
by people driving BMWs with 6-figure salaries....

We all know the price of gasoline is probably $25/gallon, if you
add in all the trillions spent killing people in the Mideast.
