*They pay high wages because back in the 1980s, ~~Danish unions~~ the Danish public flipped a switch and turned the whole business off, and McDonalds doesn’t want to find out whether they would do it again.*

Super interesting read. It’s relevant today because the EU is planning to impose minimum wages in member states. That would fundamentally challenge the nordic labour model.

Very interesting article, thanks!
