Dude, it’s McDonald’s. Like, almost anyone can do it. It takes an hour’s worth of training, and no specialized skills, and they’re paying 275% above the federal minimum wage.
So you don’t think $20 an hour to work at McDonald’s as a brand new employee, living somewhere like Tulare, CA is fair? What do you think is fair then?
I never said they don’t deserve it, I said it’s 275% above minimum wage for menial labor. Seems pretty great to me, but the person I was replying to still seems to be complaining about it.
Edit: regarding NBA players, they’re the absolute best in the entire world at what they do, and they’re part of an industry that makes money hand over fist. There’s only a few hundred people on the planet that can play at that level. They’ve trained their entire lives to get to where they are.

The federal minimum wage is already impossibly low. That’s not a useful comparison.

NBA players don’t deserve millions to play basketball, either.
