Chipotle workers are lucky if they are paid $11 an hour in some locations, and these workers’ hours have been cut since Chipotle experienced two health scares about their food. But a stock analyst says Chipotle staff are paid too MUCH!
Even if a Chipotle worker got a full week’s work, he or she would only make $22,000 per year. Few places exist where that wage would not mean food pantries for the family. No Chipotle lunches for them, as bosses cut hours, eliminate benefits, and keep wages as low as they can get away with.
Those facts tell the entire snapshot of capitalism today: overpaid executives want to guarantee their privileges by pushing the work force to its knees.
