Also, “fast food workers are twice as likely as workers in other industries to to rely on public assistance programs to make ends meet.” Logan also adds that “83% of fast food workers earn less than $10 per hour(which leads to welfare in 84% of workers in New York City), but are typically better educated than industry workers, and are still denied full time work.” Clearly, fast food industries should be regulated in order for fast food workers to actually get what they are working for.
