Get out of NYC or shut up.

The higher the prices go, the less he will sell, his income will drop and soon he will go out of business. His products are not absolutely necessary or irreplaceable. That is how inflation destroys an economy. The Biden cabal that wants to destroy the American nation knows exactly what it is doing.
I bought a baguette at a farmers market and they added 15% more as an employee wellness fee.
So, we're talking about a meal, not a "sandwich." Does the writer understand that there is a difference?
His math is off, but the point is made. He would have to sell 7818 sandwiches to break even.
That’s 300 sandwiches per hour for a 10 hour day.
Something seems to be missing from that equation…
Simple answer...it’s not the cost of the materials, it’s the overhead of doing business.
Why not cut all wages by 50%?
Sheesh- I used to eat at resteraunt local and have same sandwich and soda every day, so I never looked at prices, and was zlways given a bill for $6- this went on for years- the owner never said a word, and I never thought to check- eventual,y the resteraunt sold to new owners, and I looked at their new menus, and lo and behold, the price for the same 2 items was nearly double.
The previous owner never mentioned to me that prices had climbed so high, and like a dummy, I never thought to ask. She was taking a hit on what she could have been getting- i,should have figured that prices had skyrocketed under oblama- She however is a very generous woman, and wouldn’t let me pay more for the hit she had taken on my account. I tried to make up some for it by supplying rhubarb for her pies for the resteraunt, which she hzppily accepted, but it was nowhere near what I had cost her. I was just shocked at how prices had climbed so fast- (they really climbed after gas hit a whopping $4.59 a gallon under oblama)
““You figure in a 32% food cost. I have $11 of gross profit in that sandwich. You take all my costs divided by $11 of gross profit, and I [have] to sell 93,000 sandwiches just to get to zero before I can make any money,” he continued.”
That omits his drink profits!
For the first time in a long time, I bought a hamburger in a downtown restaurant. It was $20.00. No fries, no drink. The hamburger with some avocado was $20.00. I think I ate my last downtown hamburger.
I find it amazing how many people cannot perform basic mathematics.
I know he was making an illustration but he needs to have a realistic dialogue and discuss the costs of & revenue from all his products.
Bacon, three eggs, toast, fruit cup, milk, coffee and tax — $23 this morning. This is on the San Fran Peninsula. It’s about 2/3 of that in North Idaho.
I remember not long ago paying $6 for that.
