what would it take to make liberals understand basic economics?
It is more a matter of not caring about the impact than anything.
People think that this course can be corrected via elections and legislation.
It cannot.
The only way our current course corrects is if there is either a global economic collapse, which would likely result in a global war, and we would have no idea what would arise from that, or there is a true global war, which would cause a global economic collapse.
Essentially, an economic collapse is required, but a global war would also likely happen.

This is good. TBH, there was a ton of very average restaurants pre-covid. Hopefully this will weedout most of these establishments.
Holy Stupidity Batman!
The world is made up of tons average business that support families and their communities. And, by doing so, provides support to the overall economy.
But hey, let's be sure as many average restaurants as possible can shut their doors. Somehow that helps us all, right?

It isn’t
It’s going to be a rough 4 years (as it already is) but things will change

There is no course correction short of large scale economic collapse, and Republicans will not come close again.
2016 was a trial run of direct election control, and it wasn’t sufficient enough.
They fully corrected their mistakes in 2020, and there is no going back.
And this isn’t a concept of election theft. Ballot harvesting is here for good.

Survival of the fittest.
Innovation and quality overrides average and underperforming.
Or are we bending the rules of capitalism when we see fit.

Democrats are on the cusp of drafting/passing some significant legislation policies that will essentially give them the ability to manipulate every federal election. Couple that with uniparty SoS's in places like GA, AZ, WI, etc., and they'll have a stranglehold on state/local elections too.

I believe it. Been eating out a decent amount lately, just leaves a bad taste.
Charges for “covid” $3 to split a dish (with a 6 year old), $3.50 for a soft drink.

It ain’t capitalism with constant interference from government influence.

As it turns out, paying people a "living wage" for unemployment benefits has a negative impact on the labor market
this ends soon and in some states already has.
The bigger issues is getting the supply lines fixed and we need to start fkcuking up Russia and China for these ransomware attacks.

correct.
Also, remember we are in the process of: Build Back Better. Inflation, Unemployment, Fuel Price Increases, and moar Government HandOuts are all apart of the process.

We're helping Russia get their gas pipeline into Europe and buying Iranian oil. You think this administration is going to do anything to hurt China and Russia?

Higher prices AND smaller portions. Go out to eat once a week & the amount of servings has gone down significantly.

LMAO. You think free market capitalism was taking place over the past 14 months?

Of course not. But do I believe underperforming stores/restaurants doomed to close anyways were just pushed over the edge a little early? Yeah.
And do I believe some of those establishments actually took the opportunity to change, evolve, and fix their own models to actually perform better long term? I believe that as well.

OP's conclusion to what he quoted from the article is to blame nationwide rising restaurant prices purely on a living wage that hasn't been implemented nationwide even though what he quoted indicates there are several things causing rising restaurant prices w/the major one being a 15% increase in supply costs.

The Nordic-cuisine purveyor said he’s spending about 15 percent more on supplies, while customers’ checks are on average about 15 to 20 percent higher.
Any idea why supplies might be higher?

The pandemic fricked up supply lines. It had nothing to do with a living wage which, again, has not been implemented nationwide.
