Burned at McDonald’s. Treated with MUSTARD.

http://fightfor15.org/

"Just put some mustard on it–that will take the burning out of it."

That's the SHOCKING directive made to McDonald's worker "C.B." by her manager after she burned her arm with boiling hot grease.

But this crazy treatment isn't the only problem. Four out of five fast food workers have been burned – most repeatedly, many badly – for one simple reason: Fast food companies care way more about their profits than the basic safety of their workers.

See for yourself. Watch the startling video McDonald's and the rest of the fast food industry don't want you to see:

government regulations will make companies more responsible for their actions. That's the libertarian thinking anyway.
Just abolish the safety regulation requiring first aid kits and Whoola! The kits will be miraculously stocked. Using mustard on a burn wil no longer be needed.
