The one time I had Popeyes chicken, me and my grandma, were surprise at how bland it was. Like WOW, how do you deep fry chicken and end up with ZERO flavor! I'm just impressed.
This sort of thing is a violation of that contract, right? Right?
Well, that went to shit too.

In reality owners don’t want to pay normal wages.
And please don't substitute pictures of people stealing food from a CVS.
As it is, the guilty company pays an insignificant fine and the criminals behind the crimes get richer.
There is only one way to stop corporate criminals: #LockThemUp
If the DOJ had prosecuted white collar criminals we probably could have avoided the election of Trump, Rick Scott, etc. and put their criminal buddies behind bars instead of back in the White House & in Congress.
The DOJ deliberately gave up on pursuing big white collar corporate cases after Enron, even though that prosecution was theoretically successful.
And the DOJ probably never would have prosecuted anyone from Enron if that house of cards hadn’t already publicly collapsed.
Just not the same otherwise
Smh burger king
But before they go to prison they should have $1000 shoved WAY up their asses and all the other inmates should be made aware it's up there.
One makes 1,3 billion, the other over half a billion, they can pay more than $2 million in fines. That's a joke and written off as "cost of doing business" while profiting off stealing from minors.

The point is not surrendering in advance.

Question
Are #Resisters NOT for cutting waste/fraud, redundancy, taxes, deporting known criminals?
