A Fatburger operator told Business Insider how the pay hike was impacting his family-owned stores

• Fatburger. This name is the essence of burgerpunk. If you made it up as a joke it would be too over the top.
• Small business tyrant pissing and moaning over having to treat employees with a minimum of decency.
• Family-owned. We’re supposed to think some poor old grandma is feeling really sad about this
• Stores. Plural. This guy owns several stores but somehow he’s the victim who’s being squeezed

This sentence is one of the most profoundly American things I have ever read.
