The weakness of the asset light model in the restaurant industry ( heavy franchising and heavy debt) is now apparent. Thank you Jonathan for helping us understand why it will lead to the downfall of so many companies and franchisees.

My point...
There's no 'both sides' at this point. There's a side encouraging violence against opponents. There's a side fighting to not count votes. There's a side promising to roll back our rights, stop immigration, and indoctrinate our children. There's America or Trump.
