There's a reason why the powers that be have been focusing on promoting businesses over people.
People have standards. People have pride. They can feel shame. Businesses can't. There's no one to blame when they lower their standards. They're predictable and easy.
Pretty sure there's a similar story with the Costco founder being the only thing keeping them from raising the price of their hot dogs.
Yes. The burgers I make myself in a pan are better than just about any restaurant and all fast food because I can season it myself.
It's actually sad how bland burgers taste in comparison. They don't need to be that way.
If that place isn't getting enough business, maybe you should suggest they advertise their prices.
A simple sign showing how their prices compare to the competition's goes a long way.
I probably wouldn't stop in a hole in the wall, just because they usually charge as much or more than chains. Doing what I suggest would change my mind, if the prices were right.
Seriously. Fast food just isn't for poor people anymore.
We have to use grocery stores.
Thankfully, grocery shopping online is much easier now.
and it looks like a toddler slapped it together
I think it's funny how food quality is down, service quality is down, yet they still want to charge higher prices.
Like, it's not even worth getting fast food because I don't want to deal with the disgruntled employees who blame me for making them do their jobs.
Some people will. But others will never admit that fast food is too expensive.
They'll just complain they're not making enough money.
They want us to take out a loan to give them more money.
it’s the same price
You know, this wasn't true until recently.
Fast food as gotten stupidly expensive.
It's what people with too much power brings.
These guys saw their wealth was threatened, so they spent some of it to protect it.
The solution is to make sure these people don't have enough excess wealth to spend it how they do.
The funny thing is, businesses already do this.
Prices for 'digital goods' tend to vary depending on the country the user is paying for them in.
It's just another shining example of how businesses charge the most people are willing to pay, not the minimum to keep the lights on.
