It quite literally is. A non-automated McDonalds extracts money from a certain population(the target market of the McDonald's) and funnels it to the owner, but the owner has to employ people(typically from the same area/market) to give some of that money back to. Without those jobs, money is being extracted from the target market without any being given back.
