The new AOC parody account gives Bernie Sanders an economics lesson

Socialist Bernie Sanders is at it again, this time calling on McDonald’s to pay its workers $15 instead of buying back stock:

In my view, if McDonald’s has enough money to buy back $22 billion of its own stock, it damn well has enough money to pay all of its workers at least $15 an hour.

Of course, the majority of McDonald’s employees work at independently-owned franchises, which even the AOC parody account knows:

Bernie, McDonalds is a franchise model – even I know that.
