Beats me. I wasn't debating the status of Uber drivers, just the assertion that McDonalds can't force you to buy expensive equipment.


Do you or do you not understand the difference between a franchise owner and a fry cook?


"Except McDonalds can't make you pay for your own fry station. Or lease it from McDonalds at high rates"

Do you or do you not understand that this statement is false, regardless of the status of Uber drivers?


That's a very selective quotation.

"You" in the original comment was very obviously a fry cook: "Uber drivers are entrepreneurs like the fry-station cook at mcdonalds is a small business owner. Except McDonalds can't make you pay for your own fry station."
