Should Fast Food Restaurants Be Paid?

That people should not be discriminated against regardless of their race, religion, gender or disabilities.

Fast foods are one of the main reasons of obesity in America. Fast food is a well known food of the American culture, so citizens eat more fast foods than any other country. More and more children are becoming obese from their exposure to fast food at an early age. If schools serve fast food such as Burger King or McDonalds full of fat and sodium, then that would mean some children would have to eat fast food everyday and that would increase the risk of heart disease, diabetes, and becoming obese. Many Americans eat fast food at least once a week, but imagine how this country would be if children would eat fast food every school day! If schools did serve fast food, it

There are various different perspectives on the issue of fast food. Some people believe that this

Floridians love life in the fast lane and sadly it has cost some of them their lives. There has been lots of debates on whether the state of Florida should ban fast food eating places. The Florida government should ban fast food restaurants. These diners need to be banned because they promote laziness, unhealthy eating habits and obesity. Laziness affects a lot of Americans, that’s part of the reason why so many people today are obese. If people are obese it’s because of the poor unhealthy eating habits that they have developed. In order to change these habits, they have to sacrifice. Sacrificing is always a very hard thing to do especially when trying to change a habit that’s been going on for so long. Laziness is the unwillingness to

A man in a McDonald’s uniform takes orders, and flips burgers as he thinks to himself he could’ve done much better for himself. Why would he be forced to do this? He could not afford to pay for his college and could not get a job to support himself. Education in the United States is becoming more and more expensive, and the people it is having the heaviest impact on is the graduating classes of high school students. Making public colleges have mandatory free tuition will improve the quality of living, improve the unemployed rate, and also improve parts of the economy.

The majority of Americans enjoy fast food like bees enjoy their honey. Fast food is hard not to love due to families experiencing fast paced days, parents who work more than 20 hours a week, and having children with picky appetites can be rough. For most American families, it can be a challenge to not consider eating fast food more than once a week. The fast food industry has grown tremendously through the years. The one restaurant that is known all over the world for their golden arches and their big macs is McDonalds. With knowledge and personal experiences, I can say that McDonalds is by far the worst fast food restaurant in America. I believe this due to how unhealthy the food is for our bodies, the disturbing facts about the happy meals, the poor service, and the non-cleanliness of the restaurant.

Have you ever thought if you were a worker and you think you should get paid more an hour? Well the fast food workers at Mcdonalds get paid (their minimum wage is $7.25 an hour). And some people think it should really be $15 an hour because they really do work hard like making sure everything is clean to have a space to work with, practice their skills to get their food ready fast and so they can enjoy, and lastly knowing how to welcome their customers. Like so, “A first wave of fast food strikes began in November 2012 in several New York city restaurants”. They are protesting to this cause because “That for many would boost their hourly pay to $15 from the current federal minimum $7.25”. (Article ½)

“In 2012 the lowest paid Bulls player earned about 850,000 dollars,” according to the “Two Sides To Every Coin” article. That is more than the average household earns in 16 years. Why should athletes get paid so much if families work harder than most pro athletes but get paid less? Athletes are paid huge amounts of money to play even though they don’t know what to do with it.

The star player on the soccer team, slowly, walks not trying to win the game. No matter what the score is he knows he will revive a shiny trophy at the end of the game. With different effort, the player could improve and turn into an even better player. Recently, there has been debates over whether kids should receive participation trophies. I believe that there should be no more undeserved trophies given to players.

In article Fast-Food Workers Demanding $15 Minimum Wage May Soon Have a Much Bigger Problem, the author Carly Hoilman indicates that a former McDonald’s CEO warned they might use robots and machines to take over jobs if the minimum wage raised from $7.25 an hour to $15 because this will be cheaper than hiring humans.

Yes, it is fair for teenagers to get paid less at a job when they aren’t considered adults yet. Bob Battles agreed in Up Front magazines, and stated, “If there are going to be legal restrictions on what teens can do then it makes sense that their pay is lower as well.”(Battles Pg. 10) Teens are not fully developed yet, and have not fully matured. Adults have lived longer, and worked their way through life going through more experiences. Also, a good point Bob Battles had made was, “Children are finding it harder to get a job.”(Battles Pg.10) Until children are eighteen they will have someone to support them. Adults have jobs to support themselves so they can survive. This is why stores higher adults before children. They are more reliable

Everybody knows how fast food is unhealthy and bad for you. It has been believed to be the cause of most of obesity in American children today. Who or what is really to blame for obesity in children? Is it the government’s fault, or the fast food companies? Or it can even be something else we haven’t thought of! Daniel Weintraub has a unique opinion on who to blame, he blames the parents. I agree that they are to blame, but not mainly. They might be like less than 15% of the cause. Weintraub thinks they are the main blame unlike me. I disagree with him. I personally think the fast food companies themselves are the main cause of obesity in American children today. I know some parents are to blame for their kids being obese. LIke many

Why is it that we do not feel guilty after we finish eating a large combo from our local fast-food restaurant? How can someone possibly feel guilty after enjoying a great meal? This is the country that America is shifting into, where we set aside homemade meals for fast-food due to its ease and convenience for the whole family. Rather than being renowned for their strong military forces, America has been continually portrayed as the most obese country in the world. It sounds simple for Americans to put aside fast food, but the problem in America is that anyone with a small radius can find an alluring fast-food restaurant to eat at. Author, Michael Pollan, points out that, “Three of every five Americans are overweight; one of every five

Did you ever wonder if schools should try to have fast foods why? Schools should have fast foods, seeing that students are getting tired of school lunches also, school lunches now and then aren’t so good. Maybe it won’t be a deficient idea to have fast foods in school also schools can be getting extra money.

Several studies have shown that the increase in fast food restaurants over the past few decades has resulted in a negative impact on the already outrageous obesity rate.According to the National Bureau of Economic Research, the number of fast food restaurants over the past thirty years has tripled, which equates to about three hundred thousand establishments in the United States alone. During this time the number of children, ages six to nineteen classified as obese, has risen from five percent to seventeen percent. The percentage of adults classified as obese has risen from half to two-thirds the population. Although fast food restaurants may be a contributing factor to the increasing obesity rate in the United States, people are
