>>This ice cream machine thing is, IMO, an obfuscated method of transferring more value from the ground level businesses to McD's corporate, via the Taylor machine vendor middleman. In other words, paying more rent.
>But there were probably kickbacks to McDs when the use of this machine was mandated
I see this being insinuated since day 1, but after 2 years of lawsuits no document has surfaced during discovery to support this claim. I realize absence of proof isn't proof of absence, but given how much this piece of evidence will help Kytch's case, if not in court of law then in the court of public opinion, I'm inclined to tentatively conclude no such malfeasance has occurred.
