    I don’t think your post makes sense.

    Fast food is being targeted for not paying their workers a living wage. This is the opposite of protection and promotion.

    The government is stepping in because the ‘free market’ hasn’t corrected this and won’t correct it.

    Am I misunderstanding where you’re coming from?

      In a way it does protect the market by forcing it competitive. The market definitely has the power to squeeze fast food out of existence.
