 After this week's big announcement, fast food franchise owners across New York are considering suing the state over Governor Cuomo's plan to raise the minimum wage in their restaurants.

(Attorney Matthew) said, "Reducing expenses could happen; they could reduce hours and go to an automated system. But if the definition of "fast food" is over the counter and take it with you, the immediate reaction for many restaurants will be to offer table service."

I can't wait for fully automated ordering at fast food restaurants.  The sooner they can get rid of the surly losers who infest the counters, the better.
