> Turns out paying people a higher wage and giving them more benefits makes them work motivated.
McDonald's (MCD, -3.21%) on Friday reported its third straight increase in quarterly comparable sales, helped by moves such as bringing back All-Day breakfast and offering new menu options.

I've got a big book which literally lists every major military movement and military engagement on every single day for the entirety of WW2. I like to think it'd be worth billions to the right people if I could go back in time.

The idea of schools selling out to corporates was actually in a book I read. It’s aimed at teens really, but the idea of it makes sense, until it doesn’t.

You're right, and the guy who wrote the paper had no idea the U.S. had taken his work and run with it. He didn't find out until he came to teach in America in the early 90s.

If you believe in hell, you should read the book 23 Minutes in Hell by Bill Wiese! Definitely a thought provoking book, even if you don't believe its author was truthful!
