In Russia its 0.33 BM/hour
“Big Mac” now is forever cemented as a mean gay red pony in my mind… thanks, Tamers12345
A Big Mac is $5.19 in my McDonald’s app. Where is this $8 Big Mac?
Probably California but the minimum wage here for a McDonald’s employee is $20 per hour. That’s still more than 2 big Mac’s per hour
BMs per hour means something else in this house
If you’re having 6.20 BMs per hour, God help you.
It’s an aggregate statistic.
IBS: “Hold my beer.”
how does minimum wage only double when products go 16x? jesus the education system really is shit in the US. there would be constant riots in the streets if only people knew arithmetic
I believe the common strawman is “if min wage goes up, prices go up” which… You know just admits the system is there to abuse. “If you make more money then we’ll take more money from you”.
Because minimum wage is defined by laws and has been purposefully kept below inflation. It hasn’t substantially increased (or maybe not at all) in my lifetime.
They obfuscate the data from people and they don’t try to find it. Obviously they know that 16 is bigger than 2…
There’s a LOT of people that don’t understand inflation at all. They think something along the lines of, “I worked myself through college making $5/hr and it was hard and I didn’t get to buy all the things I wanted but it was fine. These lazy entitled people want several times that much for the same work?!”
So it’s not just basic math but basic economics and a basic understanding of reality that are sorely lacking.
It is under 6 dollars in 2024 though https://www.statista.com/statistics/274326/big-mac-index-global-prices-for-a-big-mac/
Meanwhile in Denmark.
Minimum wage for McDonalds employees: 20$+supplements. Big Mac $7

For real though, can’t even buy a 20 piece nugget anymore on an hour’s work, shit’s fucked

These big mac prices aren’t accurate
and what about big PCs?
Oh no, here’s where you are wrong. See, it’s a decline for the proletariat only. The bourgeoisie is doing just great.
In Germany the minimum wage is 12.82€/hour. The price for a Big Mac is 4.19€
BM/Hour: 3,07
I still think it is wild that we don’t include house prices in inflation, cause it was removed to use rent to match the “average American experience” which just means they no longer expect average people to ever buy a house.
So no houses and no burgers.
Brazilian minimum wage: 1,528BRL per month, or roughly 6.30 reais per hour.
Big Mac price: 24 reais, or 4 hours of minimum wage work.
