Fast food industries corporate greed took advantage of Americas need for cheap and readily available food.
According to the daily meal chipotle “is one of the fastest-growing companies of its type in the world”(Oral Citation). Firstly, Steven Ells is the one responsible for making this company such a huge success. He wanted to make a restaurant that had the high quality food, like the one you would get when you go to a high-end restaurant. Due to the fact that he didn’t have enough money to open up his restaurant, his dad gave him an 80,000-dollar loan for him to start his own business. He had a challenge to stretch that money in order to build an affordable yet welcoming place to eat.

Just a few years before this document was written such events as the Massacre at Wounded Knee happened, I believe this was just too fresh in the minds of government officials that they didn’t want to risk having another situation similar to this with the Chinese. There were some very relevant points to be considered such as the Chinese were only contributing their wages to society if it was absolutely necessary for their survival. They would live in the worst of conditions and eat as little as possible to try to save as much as they could to take back to their families in China. This is a very real problem because they start to become leeches, for lack of a better word, and they put none of their wages back into the US economy. This could in turn hurt the economy if too many of the immigrants were living this kind of
Because of customer demand the chain began to open stand alone restaurants in 1986, it now has 938 stand alone restaurants around the country. To be true to their mission “Be America's Best Quick-Service Restaurant” the company has drive through only restaurants for fast service and added convenience to their customer. Chick-Fil-A has also licensed, non-traditional outlets; this program allows licensees to serve delicious Chick-Fil-A food in settings such as college campuses, hospitals, airports, and business and industry locations.

This paper will portray the way in which Chinese immigrants helped build Canada, particularly in the West, but in return were mistreated. With the building of the Canadian pacific railway (CPR) the Chinese were underpaid, suffered worse conditions than white workers and were verbally tagged with racist names such as coolies.2 This acceptance of lower wages by Chinese workers threatened the white workers which caused a development of animosity towards them. Andrew Onderdonk, the head man in charge of running the CPR project, was responsible for shipping thousands of immigrants to the west to build this railway from 1880 - 1885. Onderdonk is an example of one of several people who took advantage of Chinese labourers because they were, “hard workers and the least expensive.”3 The Chinese community in the west worked together to help each other out against this racial
But consumers aren't helping their fellow countryman earn his own living by buying these imported items. Consumers are giving their hard-earned money to Walmart to go back to China to buy more items. (Smith & Young, 2004). Walmart has created new jobs for people when they open new stores, but they are underpaid jobs. Many of the positions are part-time, therefore, they are positions without benefits.
Canada had a very high lack of employment in which the Chinese had good opportunities to get jobs to be able to buy land, grow their own crops to feed their families. In 1858 gold was discovered along the Fraser River in British Columbia. There was a high demand for minors so that encouraged even more Chinese immigrants to come to Canada. To conclude the loyalists had a harder immigration than the Chinese because of the war and the complications of them being exiled from their own
Cause and effect Pearl Harbor The attack on Pearl Harbor was a surprise, but Japan and the United States had been edging toward war for decades. Throughout the war the United States had been growing increasingly distressed about the way Japan was treating China; they aided China but never officially got involved in the war. However, American citizens were having the time of their lives in the United States. The economy was excellent; people were making money, and spending it generously. No one expected the traumatic attack from all the way around the world.
