A reasonable assumption is that whoever took the order over a crappy drive-through microphone misheard the name. A less reasonable assumption is to leap to racism without motive. To then promote the story to national news media? Does not look like a good-faith accusation.

This is really a table to show those who think US inflation isn’t excessive or anyone’s fault. There are 23 countries shown with lower inflation; the US rate is more than twice that of the first 12. Most with higher rates are econ basketcases.

Which is nonsense. The risk of being killed by gunfire in the US is tiny (0.01% of the population in 2021) and 99.99% of the more than 400 million guns in the US will never be used in a crime. Gun violence is reduced by imprisoning violent criminals and firing DAs who won't.

There are 74 million kids in the US. Almost all are and will remain perfectly safe. And we know for sure from 20 years of data 1993-2013 that legal guns don't cause gun homicide. Make yourself useful: go figure out the real reason gun homicides are (slightly) up since 2014.

And depositors are reasonable to do so — up to the amount of the insurance that the federal government provides, generally $250,000 per depositor per account type. Those with deposits in excess of that, on the other hand, are going to have to take their chances.

All labor requires some skill, but entry-level jobs are low-skilled. That means the skills required are easily trained and retrained, making workers in those roles something of a commodity. If anyone can be quickly trained to replace you, your labor is naturally less valuable.

Taco Bell also builds price variation into their menu to hit different price points. They have cheaper options alongside premium items "up market". At my local TB, for ex, a Cheesy Bean & Rice burrito is still $1.19—but a Cantina Chicken burrito is $5.89.

Since we're fantasizing about how things should be, doctors who voice this view in public should be told by hospital administrators to treat who they're told to treat or they'll never work as doctors again, and their medical school loans will be immediately payable in full.

Unskilled labor isn't a myth, though it's more accurate to call it, "low-wage labor" or "labor with a low market value."
If it were a myth, however, posting video of skilled labor wouldn't disprove the existence of unskilled labor. We already know skilled labor exists as well.

Not how it would work. Once you remove the moral obligation to try to treat everyone, hospitals would rationally treat those most able to pay, and leave poor to die. Addicts requiring treatment as a consequence of their own behavior, of course, would land at the end of the line.

That’s not a skill of the employee, it’s a skill of the employer—one that depends in part on minimizing the amount that you pay for labor. One consequence of the push for higher minimum wage is a replacement of entry-level jobs with automation.
