These are franchise run stores, not corporate run stores.

At that point where you tried to distance them from the company they are.

You seem to be taking my comment as an attack or rebuttal on what you're saying by cherry picking a specific phrase. It's weird and reactionary.

My comment is attempting to expand on what you're are saying by pointing out that those are examples of a problem that is systemic. I am expanding upon the layers involved.

It's not just Little Caesar bad, it's also their thousand franchises. It's a massive problem to keep in check a business model that attracts rent seekers.

At this point the assumption must be that all franchises are committing wage theft and exploiting child labor.

As far as I'm concerned, the only acceptable response is to end the corporate entities that engage in this behavior and criminally charge everyone in the chain. This includes the overseer corporations, if they can control the pepperonis involved in the product they can sure as hell control the treatment of the humans involved.
