Good find and you touched on a sensitive spot for me…you made it personal. I happened to eat McDonalds yesterday on the way to Hollywood studios lol. The kids were hungry and Disney food isn’t very good. I still feel like shit…oh and I bought a few single cheeseburgers for the kids that cost 3.49 each. I actually questioned the price too!
$7.99 in Tucson will get you a Cheeseburger combo at In and Out, which is made with real meat and potatoes. No way I'd ever pay more for McDonald's. And inflation stinks. But we haven't had major inflation in over 40 years. But like the massive spikes in the late 70s and early 80s, things will eventually level off again, and people will get accustomed to the new price of things. Meanwhile, wages have been outpacing inflation now for about a year.
Hmmm... sounds like plenty of locations with a $10+ quarter pounder once taxes are added. And here's the kicker...some restaurants (including McD's) don't simply charge the state sales tax on your order. Many locales have added a "Covid tax" to the typical state sales tax. I'd be shocked if something like this didn't exist in San Diego, but even if not, that's a $10+ quarter pounder either way.
Ummm, no, sales tax is generally not 20-30%... And I am betting that you just made up your "Covid tax" thing, as I can't find evidence of a single locale adding a separate tax for Covid. Best I can figure out, there were a few individual restaurants that added surcharges during the Covid outbreak in 2020 to deal with the switch to entirely takeout food and issues with labor and such during that time, when restaurants struggled to get employees without much in the way of tips. However, it was not a tax nor something likely to be occurring 4 years later.
I must confess, I do admire the ballsy approach the Biden campaign is taking to this election. Campaigns that fail to adapt get left behind. Most would have thought a campaign slogan of "Pay up, bitch!" would come across as a little rough, but this is America. We lived through the Revolutionary and Civil wars, prohibition, the Great Depression, WW2. Give credit where it's due. Slogan is hitting home with a good 30 to 32 percent of Americans (depending on which poll you look at). Hats off to Mr. Biden for his "f*** it" approach. Wouldn't be my first choice, but if it works, who am I to... oh wait, it's not working. Nm.
Haven’t been to MacDs in ages. However, pay $13 for a 6oz burger with cheddar, bacon, fried egg, lettuce, and tomato with a side order of coleslaw at Turtle Shack. Great view of the Atlantic and cold IPA on tap, too
Other than Alaska or Hawaii if there are locations in the US where a quarter pounder is priced at $10 plus they are most likely in California or New York and the last time I checked every poll for those states has Old Joe leading the defeated indicted former president by a significant margin.
I trust the data over the average Joe, who doesn't have a great grasp of finances. And the data shows wages growing faster than inflation over the past 12+ months. And here are some more numbers. The average job-stayer saw wages increase by over 7% last year. Job hopper by over 15%. Inflation was under 4%.
I can see food prices are a trigger point for all of you Leftists. I wonder why there is so much vitriol being espoused in this one thread about Quarter Pounders with cheese? I know... you have to protect Biden at all cost, becasue he's an EPIC FAILURE and has no plan to fix the crazy inflation that's gripping the U.S.A..
