Problem isn't solved when they spend a minute trying to figure out what' the correct change to give you... when they could have just hit the "charge" button on their register and swiped the card. You'd be out as soon as they got your signature. I've never been in and out faster than with the VISA.
Cash licks my nuts.

You really think McDonalds gives a shit about the money is loses by not taking credit cards? I dont. If the owner of the McDonalds cant get a perfect merchant account for some reason, they might end up with one charging 40 cents per transaction plus 2%. That would end up being over 10% of the price of an average meal. Where the hell is the profit in that.
I would estimate if the local McDonalds took CC, it may bring an extra 5 sales a day. No way in hell are they taking CC.
