Mickey D's Going Bust

“We are in the throes of a deep depression, and nothing is changing,” a franchise owner wrote in response to a financial survey by Nomura Group that warned "probably 30% of operators are insolvent." One owner went as far as to speculate that McDonald’s is literally “facing its final days.”

I can't really believe this is because people want healthier food. Perhaps they do, but better food costs more. How do people with no jobs afford it?


It's more likely that McDonald's and Walmart are now failing because Americans can no longer afford their products, and that is a function of the non-existent "recovery" we keep hearing about. If I had recovered, I'd be eating breakfast at Mickey D's all the time.
