The state has also created a new nine-member โFast Food Councilโ to manage the industry. The Council is comprised of representatives of the restaurant owners, the employees, and the government. Jointly, they will oversee the stateโs restaurants to assure working conditions are satisfactory. The Soviet Union ran business in a similar fashion.
The response of the restaurant owners is predictable. Besides reducing worker hours and positions, they will invest less in store upkeep and more in self-service terminals, which eliminate the need for employees. To the extent they can, they will raise prices. And they will be far more likely to open their next location in any state other than California.
