well yeah he's probably a hypocrite, but i'm speaking to the larger point he's failing to make i guess, that 'small business' rhetoric is often used as a defense for large business interests by politicians

i don't think most of them of any party really give a quarter of a shit of the independent restaurant in the medium sized suburb or rural town, no

Of course they don't, near-broke restaurant owners aren't lining anybody's pockets with bribes, oh sorry, I mean "campaign contributions."

McDonalds is a huge landlord and I want some pancakes rn.
are you telling me this because you think i don't know or because it's supposed to be a defense of a moderate system

i realize how it works on the basic level, i've worked for plenty of these small business tyrants in the hotel industry

No I just want some pancakes and in the morning I will buy them from a small business owner at his McDonalds franchise location and eat them with my mouth.

No waffle house out here and the IHOP is right by the hospital which is I guess a good location for it.

McDonald’s cost about $1-1.5 million for a good one in a decent area

They are increasingly being bought by equity firms. Not really the “small business owner” you’re pretending they are
