because these idealist idiots think McD can raise the price of burgers by a “mere” $.68 (not to mention raising the prices of the other food items) and still sell the same number of hamburgers
That’s not how Econ 101 works. For every penny the price goes up, some number of sales goes down. Certainly McD has this figured out
If you haven’t been patronizing these business as often as my family (2 teenagers) you might not have noticed how much business has already fallen. I know we skip it a lot this summer since taking 3 of us there now costs over $25 for “fast food”, and the parking lot and drive through are usually looking very empty
What’s ironic in all this is that McDonald’s has been heavily targeting blacks in its advertising.
