I will gladly pay 4% more on literally everything if the wages of employees go up by more than 4%. Of course if the CEO makes 4% more, then frick all this


So you are essentially willing to take a 4% decrease in pay so a small segment of the country can get a 4% raise? And those people getting the 4% raise also have to pay the extra 4% on everything, so how is that helping them?

How about, they make better decisions. If making minimum wage, stay at home with your parents. If you're somehow an adult making minimum wage, then get a roommate or two.

did everyone get a 4% raise to match, if not buying power is down, and if you did get a 4% raise, it wasnt a raise as your buying power is still the same.

That is not the point the OP was making, the OP was insinuating that Trump has nothing to do with the future economic condition of the country bc he is no longer president when in fact he is the one who started all this mess to begin with.

Chipotle Mexican Grill Inc (CMG.N) said on Tuesday it has increased prices for products across its menu


Was told by Sherwin Williams (10 minutes ago) that price increase coming within the month.

Across the board for everything.

$18 for a burrito and $80 for a gallon of paint.

Next stop is $5/gallon for gas.

Why don't you explain it then, Keynes. There's maybe three posters here that understand basic economics, and there's nothing basic economics about the US economy in practice.

Yes going from $7 to $7.28 when it's been $7 since 2016 is a sure sign that it'll be $18 by the end of the year

Are you saying there isn't a problem in this country with wealth disparity and CEO pay?
