A Norwood, Massachusetts McDonald’s reopened with a new building and new technology that replaces entry level workers with computer terminals.

McDonald’s generated nearly $25 billion in income by operating 36,899 restaurants worldwide that employed more than 375,000 people according to its 2016 annual report.

All of that economic activity provides a constant target for busybodies of all kinds.

What happens to entry-level jobs when government policy raises the cost of hiring?
