What is a disadvantage of the McDonaldization of society?

There is less variety of goods.

There is an increased need for employees with postgraduate degrees.

There is less competition so prices are higher.

There are fewer jobs so unemployment increases.

The answer to the question: What is a disadvantage of the McDonaldization of society, would be: A: There is less variety of goods.

Explanation:

McDonaldization is basically a standardization of an organizations' processes to ensure a balanced, equal and constant, but much more efficient, growth in production, so that competition is possible with others. There are four basic elements that are worked on through this process, and they are: efficiency, calculability, predictability and control. The problem with this system is that as standardization happens, less skill is needed in workers, and products have become also standardized, with much of the same, and only prices being the competing interest. Thus, when looking at the market, and the offers, there are many such things, but they are all basically the same, with more of a focus on how costly, or inexpensive the product is. This is why the answer is the first one.
