Why did the prices skyrocket during Covid but never came back down? Not only did they not come back down but have just kept increasing. Why doesn't your average normie see anything wrong with paying premium prices for fast food slop that has also gotten smaller/worse in quality?
>>540926780jews
>>540926880This but unironically
>>540926780>more women and jeets in executive positions at companiesWhat happened to diversity being good for society?
>>540926780They realized people will buy slop at premium prices
>>540926780Automation was meant to make things cheaper, not more expensive
>>540927165How do they keep it up though when it is obvious people can't pay the prices anymore?>>540927166Yeah funny how that happened. Automation was supposed to make things cheaper, work easier, etc. but it has all had the opposite effect.
Taco Bell won the fast food wars
Just stop paying for overpriced burritos, groceries, homes, gas, etc. and the prices will go down. Vote with your wallets.
>>540927401Be well.
>>540926780During the COVID bullshit, the government was printing and throwing money everywhere.I got $35,000 in the Federal Pademic Unemployment Program but have been disabled and getting NEETbux since 2009.
>>540926880Trvthnvke
>>540926780I'm sure it had absolutely nothing to do with printing tens of trillions of dollars to bail out jewish stock portfolios!
Cook at home. Just cook rice and beans and eat that. Cheap rice and beans. Your dumb.
>>540927424*Starts to try for change and votes with wallet.*Nothing happens.If imports continue to pay and we continue to import none of this matters.Maybe this would work 50 years ago but not now. All true control is lost.
Why would prices ever come back down? They could stabilize if we stopped printing money but they will never go lower than they are today without a devastating crash
>>540927784*rises the price of rice and beans*
>>540928129Not for me. You must just be poor. Learn to cook poorfag.
This retarded threat again.
>>540927784>just avoid eatingkys faggot. fast food should exist, it should be fast, food, and cheap. that's what it was and i want it back. i dont care how many ovens it takes.
>>540928441Ur lazy and poor. Probably millennial. That's all ur gen is. Glad you fucks will not be able to retire like us.
>>540927235> when it is obvious people can't pay the prices anymoreAnon. People are still willing to pay those prices.
>>540928782i dont think so, these places are always dead when i drive by them
>>540926780YOU dont realize how good you had AND HAVE it still, sheltered burgerboyYou complain about a x5 price increase over your lifetimeIn my lifetime I've seen prices go up x2000Yes, two thousand times what they used to beI am 25 years oldThis is what awaits you when your politicians go mask off
>>540926780I remember the 12 tacos for like 3 bucks deal many years back
>>540927235Paypig model 'works' because they already needed to cut shifts and headcounts.
>>540926780>Why doesn't your average normie see anything wrong with paying premium prices for fast food slop that has also gotten smaller/worse in quality?Because they are subhumans, it's overpriced, shit, doesn't even fill you up. Even a gas station sandwich is better than that shite. They're just milking the dumb fucks and addicts atm. Why not. Useless eaters, have you seen what they pay for it to be delivered cold to them by some foreign fuck any sane person wouldn't trust around their food? You could gas everyone who eats at these places or uses the delivery apps and the world would improve vastly overnight.
>>540929604Do you drive by them 24/7? Because that’s the hours they operate you stupid fucking chud did we forget our thinking hat at home today? Holy shit you are stupid as fuck
>>540929604Most sales are via the drive-thru or delivery apps. Only a few weirdos like me still go inside to eat. Everyone else gets the food and quickly leaves.
>>540933450They've actually built it and plan to build more.
Del Taco used to have 50 cent tacos and my mom would pick up fucking twenty and we would get drunk and laugh for hoursShe killed herself recently and tacos are also 5$ each at Del Taco now. Coincidence or capitalism?
>>540926780It's a tax on the poor. That's what inflation is. Central bankers print more money, the value of existing money goes down, prices go up, wages stay the same. If you aren't actively demanding raises at work, then you get paid less every day.
Gosling was an adult when 5-layer were 89 cents which makes the meme even worse.I was thinking how easy Ryan has had it for getting roles, while other disney stars (girls) were used or rejected by the fashion and movie industry. Like my girls VJ or Jennette. Then they sucked the life out of Ariana.They got a 7 dollar gordita now. For 1 special gordita with sauce.
>>540933509They really don’t want me to interact with the employees for some reason…
>>5409267802000 to 2020 overall inflation is about 60%.Anything from a factory pretty much has become cheaper (although cars about the same), and anything that is services or a raw material plus services (liked food) has become massively more expensive.
I miss the grilled stuffed burrito. Are they still doing gimmicky shit like offering flour tortillas stuffed with corn chips so they can save money on cheese and meat? What utter garbage
Inflation alone doesn’t account for Tbis price increase. During the Clinton administration, the U.S. began a shift I to deregulation. This continued under GW Bush, and was in full-swing by his second term. By 2020, any company the public had ever heard of was more than likely owned by a private equity firm. These are investment groups who pump capital into a business for expansion, and that business is then beholden to its investors. As such, there’s generally a legal obligation to increase profits every year. This is why the word “ensbotificatuon” came to be. Once a company has streamlined its processes and cut wastefulness, the next step is to decrease quality. Fast food was already at the low end of quality, so prices have risen disproportionately to inflation. About 90% of Yum Brands are owned by institutional investors. >>540926880Yes, this is what it all boils down to.
>>540934330Cars prices have just about matched inflation, but are insanely equipped compared to 20 years ago. In 2000, some base models still didn’t have power steering. Most didn’t have power windows, power locks, and keyless entry. I don’t think any uad backup cameras and screens.
>>540927569They did it intentionally to screw everyone over (except Israel). I hope you spent your covidbux well. After the cash rolled out I heard an increase of modded cars on the road, so I'm guessing that's what some retards spent their money on.
>>540934687I would agree with that.
