I heard Queen Latifah is the new Equalizer

In other news, Kristin Chenoweth has been cast as Idi Amin in the upcoming remake of Raid on Entebbe

I seriously don’t understand how TV execs think some shows will work? Even worse is that Call me Kat show. Zero chance that makes it more than a season.

If they were so desperate to get her another TV show, they might as well have reprised Blossom.

I remember the good old days when the minimum wage was $7.50. Back when you could buy a cheeseburger for a few bucks, taco bell burrito for a couple bucks. Coffee was about a dollar or two at wawa. Now that I think about it, not much has changed.

The good thing is, these hard left proposals have absolutely 0 consequences. Legalize 11 million people? Sure, why not? $15 minimum wage? I say make it $20.

I’m not necessarily in favor of a $15 minimum wage.

But I always want to question the memes/comments that a cheeseburger price will go to $10 or $25 or whatever level the poster decides to freak out to. 
If the free market is setting the price for a fast food sammich... aren’t companies selling said sammich for the maximum price customers are willing to pay vs the number of sammiches sold at a higher or lower price, so as to maximize profit, Correct? So raising the minimum wage would obviously raise the price to make sammich, possibly causing  certain sammich making feasible or not feasible, but isn’t the maximum price already set?

Obviously there are many factors.

If it costs .50 to make a hamberder and you sell 100 hamberders a day at $1. You make $50.

If you raise the price to $2 and still sell 100 hamberders you make $150.

If you raise the price to $3 and then only sell 50 hamberders you make $125 profit.

Where are you setting your price?
