I promise you the companies that are now forced to pay $20/hr are more than capable of doing so. They're only laying off people in protest; it's purely for show. They must have at least 60 locations nationwide and be considered "fast food". These companies aren't broke. Starbucks for example, which just closed 7 stores in protest had a net income of $4.125 billion in 2023
