Fast food Nation: Ch 4 Questions

1. The main legal issue that all fast food franchises have to deal with is trying to make sure that unions don't organize against them and sue for poor treatment. Other legal issues that fast food industries have to deal with is making sure that everyone is getting payed minimum wage and getting treated fairly. They also have to make sure that all the food they make is safe for consumption or they might get closed down by the FDA.

2.They hired develepment agents to sell their restaurant so subway could make a better profit from their stores. To open up a Subway costs about 100,000 dollars and most of the people who work at the restaurant tend to work 60 to 70 hours a week to make a decent wage. The people that work there are also migrant workers who barely know any english so they can't read what their sighning when decide to open a subway.
