Why is a soup kitchen considered service to the people but McDonalds isn't?

Hack Wilson - real:
is it Subway or McDonald's goal to feed starving people?

Do people volunteer to work at McDonalds?  Helllll no.

at the end of the day, business are only out to MAKE MONEY. they put out what people want only if theres profit involved. its called supply and demand. mcdonald's, subway or whoever the hell it is will not give out food for free because theyre losing money that way and big greedy corporations are against that obviously.

Food for thought.

When the economy is doing well, McDonalds begins to lose business. When the economy is down, McDonalds starts to see increase sales. Why is this, because it's cheap food. And well Americans may suffer through a bad economy, obesity rises due to eating bad food. But that doesn't mean McDonalds isn't doing a service. It means that it has really cheap food.

Part of America's food problem is that we have mastered producing cheap unhealthy food at a very fast rate, which means when times are bad people will eat garbage. When times are good, people will afford to eat better. But I will say this, we are blessed in the US, when times are bad in other places... this happens.... http://www.theguardian.com/world/2008/jul/29/food.internationalaidanddevelopment. So it maybe better to eat junk food as oppose to dirt. We have come very, very far. History has proven that drought and disease can lead to mass starvation, in the US as long as poor people can afford McDonalds, then we can avoid that.

So do I consider McDonalds a service, I guess in the economical sense of the word which would be the same as customer service. Is McDonalds healthy, hell no. Could everything here be worst... oh yes it can. And for that, McDonalds has it's place in American society.
