McDonald's apparently doesn't give too much of a damn about their students since most cannot afford laptop computers while Pepsi gives their students such tools.

What Anon E said

Cathy a quick G search
Tuition Assistance Program Details: McDonald's “Archway to Opportunity” tuition program can be used for both on-campus and online degree programs. Hourly paid restaurant workers are eligible to receive up to $2,500 yearly in tuition assistance. Additionally, restaurant managers are eligible to receive $3,000.


McDonald's Scholarships. 50 awards of $2,500 each (one per state) and 3 awards of $7,500 each are given to eligible restaurant employees.


Now as to community support the same page I C shows this whopper of help from McD's

In 2011, McDonald's donated $34 million in cash and in-kind donations (including hamburgers and fries, and volunteer hours donated by employees) to RMHC and other charities. That is only .08 percent of their $5.5 billion net income, says the report, far less than what is donated by similar companies like Yum!Oct 30, 2013

Old numbers yet current net income is $5,192,300

Pepsi however in a quick search results in this

No but a quick look at via Wiki and I smiled when I C that novel is 2nd to SYRUP

Anyway you got me to look C at current state of US Corps donations to charity

Over the past 30 years, corporate contributions to charities in the U.S., as measured by percentage of pretax profits, have fallen precipitously, from a high of 2.1 percent at its peak in 1986 to just around 0.8 percent in 2012. There is some year-to-year variability to this measure, because ironically enough, contribution percentages tend to rise in periods of poor corporate earnings.

Now on the other hand there are several FAMOUS founders of corporations where the Founders now in retirement give away the vast majority of their Billions to Charity

Locally a close neighbor (10 Minutes away) gave away all of her MC D's Billions to charity upon her death - And I only once saw her at a Zoo benefit which she gave massive amounts of money2

Founder of Qualcomm is giving away his Billions as well and of course Blue Screen of Death Bill Gates

In the novel, Jennifer Goverment, there are USA countries and the free market essentially runs every aspect of daily life including the school systems. Australia is one of those countries, the author is also from there, and different companies find different schools. Pepsi and McDonald’s are two such countries.

Why does the mere mention of children automatically trigger you into posting about molesting them? Is there something you would like to confess to us?

No, it's the "e-ink," and the fact that you could have a library within one device that is dedicated to reading so no online distractions.
