A Fatburger operator told Business Insider how the pay hike was impacting his family-owned stores

Fatburger. This name is the essence of burgerpunk. If you made it up as a joke it would be too over the top.
Small business tyrant pissing and moaning over having to treat employees with a minimum of decency.
Family-owned. We're supposed to think some poor old grandma is feeling really sad about this
Stores. Plural. This guy owns several stores but somehow he's the victim who's being squeezed

This sentence is one of the most profoundly American things I have ever read.
