Dinner for “few”

Do they know that they are nothing more than wage-chattel parading to advance a progressive policy that will make more than a few of them wage-slaves to the welfare state?

(NY Post) Fast-food and other low-wage workers picketed outside burger joints in New York and across the country Wednesday, demanding pay hikes to at least $15 an hour.

About 500 protesters brought the lunch rush to a halt at an Upper West Side McDonald’s while shouting: “We believe that we will win!”

Of the 500 picketers, I wonder how many are actually minimum wage employes?  Employees who work at that McDonald’s.  And of those, I wonder if they are all prepared to have “the meeting.”  The one where they gather together, like castaways on a deserted island, to decide who (after their ‘victory’) gets to eat and who gets eaten.
