      Feels like more and more conservatives are feeling comfortable saying the quiet part out loud.

    Idiot. That’s neither healthy nor sustainable. What’s his vision for his country?

      Bleeding it dry? There was a thread in Mastodon recently proving there’s a massive supermarket cartel driving prices in Austria higher than in surrounding countries and the government took the side of the supermarkets.

      The vision of his party is to keep everything the same, they’re conservatives

      It’s also nowhere near that cheap.

      McD is hella expensive, especially if you have to live of of it.

      A 8-10€ basic menu is good to fill in a single meal, but while having a ton of calories, doesn’t satiate enough to count even as a full meal (which is on purpose so you order more). At my local prices, you’re looking at 13-15€ minimum, to have a satiating meal out of McDonnalds.

    What on earth happened to all the small businesses in my “poor” rural village? Oh right, that pedestrian unfriendly stroad next to the freeway with the Walmart and all the fast food restaurants sucking up the village’s life force happened.

    Is McDonald’s cheap anywhere other than the US? In the US, there’s a bunch of promotions that drive costs way down…

      Yeah, I always heard in my youth that McDonald’s is the poor’s restaurant (in the US at least). However it was never really the case e.g. in Hungary. It was always average priced at best. You can eat far better for far less in every moderate-sized town.

        In the US you can get a burger and fries for $2 with their in-app promotions. On a per-calorie basis, it’s actually very competitive with cooking yourself.

    I never hear anything about Austria. And when I do it is this asshole?

    I am gonna take a guess at the dude has never seen what fast food did to Americans. Because he’s as stupid as his statement.
