Can you please post where McDonald's gets kickbacks.By the way, how do we "pander" to big business today? I keep hearing that but no one mentions any specifics.
Here's an example. Did you know that McDonalds gets a tax "kickback" for every person they hire from US taxpayers? AND they finance franchisee leases through the SBA. That's right, the Small Business Administration - for a corporation making billions. How on earth is McDonalds a small business? Also, Micky D's has rigged it so that they get the money if that person they hire is there something like six months or less - not a year or more, which makes more sense from a "subsidy" standpoint... the goal is to get and KEEP people employed. Instead, they're making money churning workers in and out. This is a mega-corp with something like 140% turnover rate. They hire from the LOWEST rungs of society.
There's also this:

Also most McDonald's outlets are owned by franchisees, not the corporation. So they are small companies.
Don't let your hatred of corporations deter your learning the truth.
