12/31/13, "Fast food CEO: How govt regulation is driving us abroad," CNBC, Katie Little
"Andy Puzder, the CEO of CKE Restaurants, the parent company of Hardee's and Carl's Jr.:"
"Puzder named ethanol regulation, which has resulted in higher beef
costs, a rising minimum wage and higher labor costs due to Obamacare as
three obstacles that make doing business in the U.S. more difficult than
in the past.
To help lessen the effect of these rising labor
costs and to attract a tech-savvy generation, CKE is turning to
technology and looking into options for mobile ordering as well as
tablet ordering within its restaurants.
"I think it satisfies
the needs of younger people. It also reduces your costs," he said. "When
they talk about raising the minimum wage or providing health care for
employees over 30 hours, you're really encouraging automation."" via Drudge
