For the past 6 years there have been zero wait times to get in to Outback or Red Lobster. Now the wait can be 1 hour or more on a week night and forget about it on a Friday or Saturday unless you get there at 3 PM or after 8 PM!
And....what does that have to do with the coming economic collapse? In 1928 people never expected a depression was about to arrive.
And your prognostication with the restaurant test? GDP, price of gold and silver, and crude oil? I am interested in your theory.
Well.. I wouldn't wait 30 seconds to eat at Red Lostser...good times or bad...

I haven't experienced that at all...wait times are almost non-existent...
Guess it depends on what part of the country you are living...
I think the prices of the meals have gotten ridiculous and only those that can afford the extravaganza of a decent restaurant can afford to go...
Last time the wife and I went to Outback on Friday night a few weeks ago...no wait and $100.00 plus tab...
We used to eat out 2 or 3 times a month ...now it's once every few months
