Reported by a worker at McD. Wtf, they’re the group that would benefit the most from a change in the healthcare system. Idiot.

Or, and hear me out here, we can view this with a little sympathy: there's $60k in rewards for anyone who turned this guy in, and the person who did it makes peanuts at McDonalds.

Now, I don't know if I would do it, but I can completely and utterly sympathize why someone who makes poverty wages would turn class traitor for what almost certainly life-changing money.

Well then this person is a moron. They won’t see a dime. Maybe a pat on the head and a gift card from the dollar store.

No way the average person working at Mcdonalds does anything but blow 60k even if they get it.

Edit: To be clear, I spent 4 years working at one. Good people, bad people, but not much economic sophistication in either group.

Yeah, the fucking idiot will probably all blow it on something stupid like an ER visit.
