These corporations don’t mind losing money in the short term as they have their eyes on the long term. Pay these employees and show that the corporations are still successful, people now want and might support a living wage. Shut down they will blame the politicians and whine about how raising minimum wage will force them to lay off workers.

It’s devious but this is how all management thinks and acts, regardless of the industry.
