    They had $3.5 billion in cash at the end of the last quarter and reported net income of over $2.3 billion.

    They’re just assholes.

      No, they’re acting in the interest of their real customers, the ones they rely on to work and expand.

      Investors.

      And investors are angry if you don’t give them money.

      This entire system is very, very fucked up, and due to that, McD will always do price rises and everything to drive revenue up.
