    That’s the whole point of the franchise system. The franchisees can basically only make money if they horrifically exploit people and the corporation can deny responsibility. This is not some aberration, this is how the system works.

      Yep, the franchise is supposedly an independent business, except they can’t choose suppliers, can’t change the menu, can’t change prices, can’t do their own marketing, etc. The only variable they have any control over is basically personnel, so that’s where they try to save as much money as possible.
