i don’t think we in the united states really understand just exactly how little we have to pay for things, and how unsustainable and unethical the systems that make it possible are.

bro Zaxbys did like a deal where they just give you free food with no purchase required and it was still too expensive for me to justify driving there

two things

one, I mean I can still get cheap af food it’s just that the convenience (and arguably quality? not quite the right word but the meals you get for cheap are more basic) has gone way down in order to do so

two, how is that supposed to sway anybody who has lived for years in a world where they could take advantage of that system and then through no real visible change suddenly they can’t do so nearly as effectively

I mean a lot of this is just flat out corporate greed. Fast food price increases have outstripped inflation because these companies realized they could raise prices, and still make a profit

This is what economists don’t understand. It costs 13$ to get a footlong from subway. Make it make sense.
