2024: Big Mac costs $11 and minimum wage is still $7.25
2025: Mid Mac costs $12.50 and minimum wage is repealed
Dr Manhattan meme
Great news, everyone! 2025 came early: Prisoners in the US are part of a hidden workforce linked to hundreds of popular food brands
But if they'd raised min wage to $15, big macs would cost $30! There's just no possible way to improve things (unless you're already a member of the bourgeoisie, of course).
What if we made all wages zero and also all prices zero
Nah, we just need to remove all those pesky "regulations" impeding the free market. Once we so that, the invisible hand of the market will pummel the price of the big mac into the ground
