except actual voting is 1 person = 1 vote. shareholders, corporate conglomerates, and lobbyists have made it that 1 person gets millions upon billions of votes. when we do vote with our wallets and buy from the places we want to support, the corporations always win in the end. either by buying them out, or because what we supported decided to cater to shareholders instead of customers. just look at what happened to reddit

If capitalism worked Buffalo Wild Wings wouldn’t exist. Trash food. Go to a local pub or something.

They were delicious, cheaper, and I don't know what my dumb brain was even thinking

You're correct, and that's another beef I have with the whole industry.

Fortunately I married someone who can cook better than anyone I've ever met and they're frugal. Every meal is centered around whatever main ingredient is going to go bad first to ensure we don't throw away food, ever (and any scraps we do have leftover get fed to the chickens to produce more butt nuggets and meat).

These days the quality of food at restaurants has gone way down and one can often cook a much better meal at home. Like we have gone to a few hole-in-the wall places with pretty decent food, and then we have gone to pretentious up-scale places where the prices are 3x higher than normal and the food was still only mediocre - even fancy yacht club restaurants where almost everyone is stuck up and acts like they're better then the staff have terrible food. I have to laugh that they think it's worth $50 for a cheesburger when it tastes no better than what I could get from Applebees (at least they could have used higher quality beef for the burger! Nope - sysco special).

And then we subtract the cost of plates, dishwashers, chairs, menus, tables, IT for their internal POS and seating systems... gosh, sounds like I should be getting a discount!

That’s crap too because of you dine in and have leftovers they don’t charge for a take home container. They didn’t have to wash plates or silverware. It should wash out.

I hate when restaurants force me to tipe
