I mean I work for a BK franchisee that owns over a thousand stores, operates all over the Eastern US and apparently Peru and Ecuador, and has a revenue of 1.5 billion as of 2019, whereas a Chik Fil A franchisee can only run one store they don't own (and can own no other businesses at all if I'm reading it right). That's not just a difference of return on investment, that's an entirely different economic world for people who can scrape together 10k vs people who have a million dollars to spend. Don't be bootlicker.
