supersize this:
mickey-d founders wife died. in her will she has given away a lot of money. so f-in buy a cheezeburger and feel no guilt yall.
from the latimes:
"Now word that Mrs. Kroc has given $1.5 billion to the Salvation Army for 30 massive community centers across the country. That's one-and-a-half-billion dollars, as in billions of burgers sold. That's more money even than annoying lottery winners get in those poster-sized checks. Were we really paying that much more than those cheap McD burgers actually cost?
One-thousand-five-hundred-million dollars. Checkbooks can't hold that many zeroes. It's hard to picture 1.5 billion anythings, let alone imagine it as money. And then giving it away. Enough to buy a mountain range of Happy Meals, hold the cynicism. One-point-five billion is one dollar for every human in China plus about seven Canadas and one Chicago. Laid end to end, 1.5 billion dollar bills would wrap around the Earth five times, with 17,000 miles of money left over. Except some bills might be gone by the time you came back around the equator."
