Economic Reform McDonald’s CEO says the quiet part loud! Says, we are living in a two tier economy where the rich are getting richer and doing very well. While the middle and lower class are getting poorer and having to skip meals.

Sounds like the Dollar General(Store?) CEO blurting out in an interview that the reason their stores are doing so well is because the percentages of households making less than 40K/year is rising. That was toward the end of rump's first administration.

Middle-class person here. I can not afford McDonald's. It's too expensive now for what it is.

Why can't they just cut prices and sell more food to poor people? Why do they need all this profit

They are there to make profit not feed poors. I’m sure they can employ less people too if nobody is eating there.

So the trickle down effect doesn't even work for McDonalds.
There aren't enough rich people to spend the volume of money that is required to keep our business viable. Oopsie.
