Screw franchises and franchising. That's the kind of business model we need to get rid of, because it's basically a "subsidiary" model that shields the parent company from liability.

At the very least it complicates the dynamic. "Am I really hurting Dunkins or am I just ruining a small business owner that pays a crap ton of money to the franchise owner and mortgaged his house to open this little franchise of Dunkins".
