Their burgers are already 40% higher than most other burger joints.

Sounds like someone is aching for a drone strike. I think criticizing Obama like this makes them enemy combatants.

The sick part about it: Five Guys is Obama’s favorite burger joint! He has said so in the past.

Well, the term “burger joint” comes out of the what, 70’s? Five Guys is right in line price wise with similar restaurants - the home made burger restaurants that give huge servings of fries and all kinds of condiments.

Yes. A bit higher price for a far better burger.

Universal Suffrage

The socialist dictatorships of Chavez, Castro, and Hussein Baraka wouldn't be possible without it.

I don’t have a real problem with EBT at Subway, BK, etc.

I do have a problem with purchases of sugar laden foods and alcoholic beverages.

My mileage and we are probably on the same page.

Tried the place once. Slow service and a burger that really wasn't worth the $10 price tag. I get a better value at Fuddruckers for fancy stuff or Carl's Jr. In-an-Out is decent too, but I don't go there often either.

A competitor in Pocatello posted a remark on his own sign: One guy. Better burgers. Faster. Cheaper. Correct on all accounts.

I would make this bet...by 2016, a delux Five Guys burger will likely run around $14.

“Ruffer initially thought he would escape the law because he created each restaurant as its own company. But the law doesn’t recognize that distinction...”

How does it not “recognize that distinction”? If you have SEPARATE COMPANIES how can it hold those as legally one?

What if a small businessman owns several completely unrelated companies? Are they all lumped into one?
