        yeonmi-park the burger slave cannot eat burgers they make, only slave food of lower quality. when the burger slave is released, they have to pay back the state for imprisoning them. they cannot get the job they did at mcdonalds as a slave because they have a criminal record. they cannot afford the burger made by other slaves. they go back to prison for violating parole and are sent to the burger plantation again.
