LOL, the asshole CEO called it an "enhanced feature".

I'd say go for it, but if Wendy's does it, everyone else will, so the likelihood that it will hurt their business is unlikely.

They're outright accepting less customers in favor of those willing to pay higher prices.

That's great for a quarter, maybe a year, maybe 5. At what point does it catch up and you've trained everyone to stop eating fast food because you wanted to charge more than people can dedicate to food?

No CEO gives a shit about anything beyond the next quarter.

And it's driving our world economy into the ground.
