You're just missing one thing -- there is no way in hell mcdonalds will ever give you 40 hours a week.

Good point. The best case scenario is that you can make a decent living for a single person on $17/hr. The more realistic scenarios are uglier.

Point being: we need to stop thinking of $15/hr as a high hourly wage.

This Mcdonalds had a rather extensive line, I wouldn't be surprised if they're paying overtime to keep serving customers.
