It’s gotta start somewhere.
The issue is how many people love paying for McDonald’s. Go home and cook for my family tonight? Nah, that’s too much work. It’s much easier to spend $50 at McDonald’s.
And that will never happen. That is the consumer equivalent of kicking the can down the road. “I’ll do my part and stop buying, surely everyone else will do the same and corporations will stop being greedy.” That’s never going to happen, and if you stop at that point, you may as well just keep buying it. Costs have to be regulated. Bailouts have to stop happening. Tax breaks have to end for corporations that don’t act in the best interest of the taxed. We have to hold the government accountable for protecting it’s people, because for as long as people have been people, we’ve found new and creative ways to fuck others over while justifying it as supply and demand.

However, without regulation, those costs will continue to inflate, and the lowest will always have to suffer.
