    Good luck with that. Also, better not ever eat at the same place twice.

      Don’t worry. I’d never go out to eat in the us. I’m not a fan of subsidizing a restaurant owner. But yeah, good luck with that. Doing so would mean doing an actual protest that would harm the capital, and we can’t have that in the us. Best they can do is write a really nasty banner and go out on a non-working day (we wouldn’t want to sligthly annoy the capital class) to protest. I see it’s working wonders there…

        that would harm the capital

        No, the wait staff making less than minimum wage are who would be harmed. Capital doesn’t give a rats ass as long as they aren’t paying.

          Waiters not getting paid would mean waiters not going to work. If they don’t work, the restaurant can’t open and the capital behind it starts earning less (because it won’t open to sell food). Sure, in the short term, it will harm the workers, but in the long term, no restaurant can stay open without workers.
