I am starting a splinter group because I found the rules of "Israel and Palestine Politics Discussion" to be somewhat restrictive.

McDonald's forgot their place. They're cheap shit. They are no longer cheap, so now it's expensive shit.
Just before COVID, my go to order was less than $4 with tax. A McDouble was $1.29, a McChicken was $0.99 and a small Fries was $0.99. those are now $3.59, $2.59 and $3.39 respectively. Their $1 $2 $3 Vallue Menu has only 4 items, three of them are the ones I listed and none on the list are less than $2.59. a 4 piece McNuggets is $3.99 now. That's a dollar a nugget. They've forgotten their place.
Minimum wage here has not gone up since COVID, so they can't even claim that it's because of wage increases, because we know McDonald's pays almost exclusively minimum wage, and slightly above even for management positions.
