I think we need to seperate the ability for a corporation to make decisions of its own free will from the notion of fairness and equity for a society which allowed a franchise like Wendy's to be created. They're giving many of their supporters the middle finger after thinking they found a winning lottery ticket.

I can understand being pissed off about it as someone who isn't rich, but I also understand it's a system I have no control over other than what I choose to buy myself. I won't support Wendys if they want to choose profits over people. It's sad to see more of the world turn into a heartless corporate hellhole.

I personally hope they got their numbers wrong and they fail.
