Hate this sort of garbage. Exaggerating or lying to boost an already solid point ruins it as most won't see past the lie. They see the bullshit, turn away, call it all bullshit. Now you've lost my trust and I'm not listening to a damned thing you say.

Big Macs weren't $.50 in 1980, I was there. If they were that cheap, they wouldn't have been able to pry us stoned teenagers out of there.

Big Macs aren't $8 now. I think the whole meal is that much, maybe closer to $9.

Yes, the minimum wage is abysmal, but they're not paying that. Walmart pay $15 to start in this little hick town. McDonald's is probably $13 or so.
