The local burger place near me serves a gourmet burger with chips or fries and a choice of beer or soft drink for less than $15. It's also all locally sourced. If you were to go to McDonald's it would be more expensive and garbage quality.

We are paying for sitting at home quivering for years during the pandemic, forgiving student loans, paying for welfare and illegals, having endless wars, giving money to other countries, and being frivolous in general with our budget as a country. I mean...what a coincidence would it be that when we print tons of money all the corporations in all sectors magically colluded to raise prices to gouge you??? And! If that were true, wouldn't there be SOME outlier companies that would refuse to be part of the gouging cartel out of morals or even out of sheer business savvy to make more money out-competing by selling things for less than the rest of the corp cartel?

High Prices for High Liberalism that says the following in Europe "You will not own anything or have anything but you will be Happy!" Is this the crap you support! When a single Cucumber cost 15 bucks, and a head of Lettuce is 20 and your are prevented from growing your own veggies because you hate the truth of Jesus! Is this what you mean?

CEO get paid high cause they're running a business with knowledge and work experiences that burger flippers don't have. Running a billion dollars company is not an easy feat. Try one yourself

I saw an ad for Denny's for a $5.99 original gland slam breakfast. Pretty good, but right at the end of the commercial it says very quickly "Some locations may charge $7.99" well I bet you 99% of Denny's are offering it at $7.99.

The American dollar has become seriously devalued. The only way to stop it from going down further is to reduce consumption. Consume less, save more.

Canada has the same problem. What's worse is the Federal government keeps raising our carbon tax, even with the pandemic and now high inflation, taxes keep going up, and they keep spending more on social programs.
