"Fast Food Nation" A Contradiction

In the book Fast Food Nation by Author Eric Scholosser a contradiction that I believe is being made is the fact that these companies, McDonald's in particular come off as if they are "Your Trusted Friend" and care about you, when in reality it is all buisness. They will do anything to catch your attention to get you in there fast food restaurants spending money. A lot of people may have there own opinion on who they can and or should blame for this situation. McDonald's is a corporation that works with other buisnesses such as slaughter houses. In order to keep there company open and making money they have to do buisness with these people that supply them with there meat and products. In order to keep doing buisness with these people they have to keep selling the product and keep getting customers to buy these products from them to do so. Advertising is a big strategy to reeling customers in and gaining loyal customers that will continuously come in and spend money so that is a big strategy that they use. A big conspiracy with McDonald's is the fact that they sell there meat for so cheap and if they were to sell there meat for as little as 10 or 20 cents more they can have there workers working in a more safe environment. If they are so caring and care about us, why aren't these workers being put to work in safe environments? They are being slaughtered themselves by these dangerous machines.
