@@Moon_Presence excellent point. What I think most miss, the costs of a cooked-to-order restaurant, made primarily from whole ingredients versus purchased premade foods from a mass food distributor is the biggest separating factor. Potentially exponentially greater in cost today! These restaurants exist in more metropolitan areas of course, and must be priced inaccessibly to most people to cover the costs of doing business. The ultra rare occurrence of your small town American diner that still prepares most of their own foods is a beautiful thing.

Sadly if the prices say for instance double and ppl go half as much as they used to the place still gets the same amount of money and serves less food for it. So enough ppl would have to boycott it entirely to see any kind of change. And sadly it was increased to support a higher minimum wag for their employees during the trucker strike, so minimum wage won't go down. Even stuff in grocery stores went up and stayed there, because they realized ppl would pay that price for it. It's all fueled by greed and it would be nice to see things drop back down to what they were, but reality is they probably won't. Alot of places for various companies food related have shutdown places everywhere, so it's possible for a change if ppl stop going to places once the price gets ridiculous, which we are at that point now so yea.

I'm not sure if people understand Economics. People keep asking for higher wages, when wages go up, so does everything else. Now,when companies have to pay more they aren't going to take the so-called loss. So if you're making $9.00 per hr,and raised to $15 per hr,that's a$6 difference. That's roughly $960 per month per employee. Due to corporate greed they don't want to loss that profit. I'm a Senior and two years ago we got a 8.7 percent ss raise our Apartment complex raised our rent 8 percent. Again corporate greed.
