People are actually in this thread discussing how feasible this is as if it were a real plan down to calculating specific costs and supporting them with URLs.

Never change, Lemmy.

Many of us do have this fantasy.

I'm sick of seeing $6 for a bag of fries and $12 for a basic ass sandwich.

I mean, it's a bummer when the bougie burger places do this, but when the taco trucks and teriyaki shops near me started costing more than $2 a taco or $10 for a plate of yakisoba, I knew shit was getting hard out there.

Here in Canada we've got trucks selling 3 tacos for like $18. People here are out of their minds

I live in a small town in Oregon. A few years ago, it was $7. Now it's $10.
