Ya lost me here.
I see McDonalds as this:
McDonalds Corporation
Franchises Franchises Franchises
I don't see other middle people here. Only the corp is getting a cut of your profits
Something like, Amway works like this doesn't it? A will be the top person. B is the next person in the line and so on. They all get a cut of E's profits. E needs to bring on more people to make $$.
--A--
B--B--B
C--C--C--C
D--D--D--D--D
E--E--E--E--E--E
Am I wrong with my thinking?
