Can a Fast-Food Restaurant Pay Its Workers $12 an Hour?
A recent episode of the online news program "The Young Turks " took a look at a new fast-food restaurant in Detroit, Moo Cluck Moo, that is doing the right thing and paying its workers a living wage. While the minimum wage in Detroit is $7.40, Moo Cluck Moo pays its workers $12 per hour and is planning to offer benefits soon. The company's owner says that he started paying the higher wage because "it was the right thing to do."
Hosts Ana Kasparian and Cenk Uygur also point to the experience of In-n-Out Burger, which also provides high-quality fast food and pays their employees a living wage while being a profitable company.
