take up a fast food worker's time in this way, considering their job might depend on speed. (Not that I approve of the way fast food workers are often treated.)

You've given me an idea, though - hand a Bernie flyer with payment.

I worked fast food and I would feel like I was put on the spot with any kind of political question. Even if I agreed or rather especially if I agreed and the idea was subversive in anyway. The only way to be subversive is to stay that way and under the radar.

I have made up a very nice Bernie mini flyer that could be handed over very nicely with payment. Better yet, with a tip. I'm going to start doing this.

Although, knowing corporate Merka, I should have been able to infer what you just told me.

So, no tip. But I hope I can sneak the odd flyer in under the radar.

Or are you saying that a tip would be under the radar as well?

Pay ppl squat and tell them can't take tips. And take corporate welfare in food stamps, etc.

I hope one day we can elect a president instead of a CEO. I hope Bernie is our first one.
