People shouldn't be eating that crap anyway.

Sorry, but I shouldn’t have to pay more for a #4 because someone’s shitty arse life decisions landed them working in fast food at 40.

Almost $2 overnight on a fast food combo? How much would the increase have to be before you agreed that the term "surge" was appropriate?

Remember when the founding fathers said you needed to have property to vote? This is why.

Did you think the companies would take less profit?
Yes, the California politicians and NGO’s think that companies will just do the same work for less profit.

Only a bunch of fatasses would care what fast food prices are.

I wonder how much the executives, presidents, vice presidents and board members at fast foods franchises make as a total? I would bet it’s in the hundreds of millions of dollars per year.
The problem is not paying the employees a fair wage. These fast food companies can more than handle that without raising the prices of anything. Just the executives would make 15 million a year instead of 20. And if there’s one “problem” with capitalism I think that’s it. The average American worker/employee’s salary vs the executives salaries has grown to a much higher gap than say 50 years ago. I don’t know how to fix that though. Cause you don’t really want any government interference bc they turn everything they touch to shite
And I get the work and risks associated with starting businesses and franchises etc. But the people running these places now are not the people who took these risks getting these businesses off the ground in most big fast food or other big box store chains

Bad executives can bankrupt a company. Being high value is valuable. Why stop at cutting their salaries only 25%? Why not 90%? Do they really need more than that anyway?

Funny how minimum wages have been this high or higher in many European countries yet their food prices are very close to the same as ours. It's almost as if companies in the US take advantage of our system to artificially inflate prices because MONEY OVER EVERYTHING

Wait... these increased costs were supposed to be paid by the corporations not transferred to consumers.

Aren’t these the same leftist idiots that pushed a capital gains tax on unrealized capital gains?

Does this apply to demanding the minimum wage is increased at the cost of inflating prices for everyone?
