It’s not healthy, but it’s cheap: a hamburger at McDonald’s — €1.40, if I buy fries with it, €3.50.
3.50€ for a meal isn’t cheap and nothing a poor person can afford on a regular basis. I can cook a great meal for under 2€ that doesn’t consist of trash. What a detached asshole.
McDonald’s is not cheap food, it’s fast food. I don’t expect this cunt to know the difference.
The 1,40 burgers are barely enough to satiate a child, even with fries.
A menu that can fill an adult, that’s 13-14€ easily. And that’s still just one meal.
The quality 3 meals a day I consume and make at home average 5€ per portion. resulting in 450€ food budget per person per month, I generally go for white label products if the quality is good enough.
That’s 900€ a month for 2 people for food alone (this was 300ish before COVID).
850-1000€ for entry level 1 bedroom rent here, brings us to 1750-1900€ a month for a roof and food, another 75-100 for electricity (and then you have to be very usage conscious) brings us to 1825-2000€ a month, add required insurance (fire/health/accidents) for another 50-100€ brings us to 1875-2100€ a month.Now, a phone and internet sub are pretty much a requirement these days, so say the cost of a cheap phone, internet and gsm abbo combine to be another 50€ a month per person.
So we’re at 1975-2200€ a month to cover the very basic living expenses for a 2 person household.
You’d need to have one person with a decent wage or two people working minimum wage to barely get by.
Any surprise or extra cost and you’re in the red.
Eating McDonnalds to cover breakfast, lunch and dinner every day, you’d need over 2000€ for food alone.
Idiot. That’s neither healthy nor sustainable. What’s his vision for his country?
The vision of his party is to keep everything the same, they’re conservatives
Bleeding it dry? There was a thread in Mastodon recently proving there’s a massive supermarket cartel driving prices in Austria higher than in surrounding countries and the government took the side of the supermarkets.
This is another way to tell people to go kill themselves.
“So what does it mean that a child doesn’t get a hot meal in Austria? Do you know what the cheapest hot meal in Austria is? It’s not healthy, but it’s cheap: a hamburger at McDonald’s — €1.40, if I buy fries with it, €3.50. Now someone is seriously claiming that we live in a country where parents can’t afford this meal for their child,” he said.
“If I have too little money, I go to work more,” he added in the video, which was filmed during a wine-and-cheese event near Salzburg — with no burgers in sight — his conservative People’s Party confirmed to Plus24.
i hope he chokes to death on a piece of rotten cheese in his wine cave
His face is so incredibly punchable
Is McDonald’s cheap anywhere other than the US? In the US, there’s a bunch of promotions that drive costs way down…
Yeah, I always heard in my youth that McDonald’s is the poor’s restaurant (in the US at least). However it was never really the case e.g. in Hungary. It was always average priced at best. You can eat far better for far less in every moderate-sized town.
In the US you can get a burger and fries for $2 with their in-app promotions. On a per-calorie basis, it’s actually very competitive with cooking yourself.
Who tf can afford to eat at McDonalds, have you seen their prices lately?
His opinion used to be much more widespread 10 or 15 years ago. Now poor people can’t even eat fast food without being judged for wasting money.
He’s not just a capitalist pig, he’s an out of touch capitalist pig.
mcdonalds is not cheap though
Fast food is now treated as a “expensive night out” for us. It’s like $30 for standard cost.
Crazy how fucked the economy has gotten pretty much everywhere lol
: “But look at the SHAREHOLDER VALUE!”
“Communism is when no food”
Capitalism:
