On the one hand, if I open a restaurant and serve quick menu options which people like and come in to buy....so what? It's my right. People are on the go and need to eat.

And yet, it seems large fast food restaurants choose to prosper by offering cheaper and less "food-like" menu options while paying garbage wages and then advertise so ubiquitously that the average person can't go a day without a fast food restaurant's advertising coming into their view.
