Have to love that it starts by assuming their workers need two jobs to make ends meet. Of course that ignores the fact that few of their workers actually clear even as much as $1000 in a month, much less are offered schedules that allow them to get a second crappy minimum wage job with enough hours to make up the difference. And apparently they believe all their workers live in the tropics and thus need no money for heat.
In response to an email from Think Progress asking how they came up with this work of fantasy fiction, McDonald's had this to say.
The samples that are on this site are generic examples and are intended to help provide a general outline of what an individual budget may look like.”I'd suggest their CEO try to live on that budget for a month or two and then get back to us on how well it worked. Measuring on the stupid or evil scale, this farce goes off the chart on both.
