    If capitalism worked Buffalo Wild Wings wouldn’t exist. Trash food. Go to a local pub or something.

      The value that chain and fast food restaurants bring isn’t quality. Their value is (1) convenience, and (2) consistency.

      Many people will often prefer to have a known quantity quickly in preference to a highly probably better but uncertain quantity slower. Every Dunkin Donuts has donuts that taste the same as all the other locations. That’s more valuable than people think.

      That’s why those locations are successful.

      We don’t have pubs in the area next to my local BWW. Lots of places don’t have pubs.

      Capitalism does work in the voting with your wallet. However there’s two things that tend to get in the way. Laziness and mergers. Either customers don’t care and/or all your other opinions got bought out.
