Attempting to Convince Shareholders that QSRs are a Growth Industry
* In most chains, new stores typically pay higher franchise fees and royalties than older stores.
* As Wendy's has acquired many franchisees over the years, the corporation has likely developed a real estate portfolio that needs trimming. In many locations, a QSR is not the highest and best use of a property. Wendy's (and other chains) can close the store, sell the property, and book a tidy gain. Let the franchisee pay to build a new store down the street and pay higher fees.

this is what happens when you raise the minimum wage so high for an entry level job. These jobs are not meant to raise a family unless you become management after showing you have the skills.
The danger is that the minimum wage was a training wage meant for young or unskilled people. Politicians have been successful in changing it to a "living wage." Now, anytime a politician wants to win over a crowd of voters, they will promise an increase in the "living wage."
Not only will that destroy many businesses, but could there be anything more inflationary?
A higher "living wage" sounds good, but few politicians have any economic sense, and only a tiny fraction have ever run a business.
