From the Illinois Socialist Forum on Yahoo: On Monday, workers are planning to stage one-day strikes at some of the nation’s best known and most profitable fast-food restaurants, including KFC, Wendy’s, Burger King and McDonald’s. The walkouts are scheduled to take place in five cities where workers have previously protested: Detroit, New York, Milwaukee, Chicago and St. Louis. "Representatives of the fast-food industry counter that most restaurants operate on a meager profit margin while providing an opportunity for many people to enter the workforce and give them the chance to move up. The National Employment Law Project released a report Thursday refuting part of that assertion. Fewer than one in 50 jobs in fast-food restaurants are managerial, the study said." Only 2.2 Percent of Fast Food Jobs are Managerial, Professional, or Technical Occupations
