Burger King in Trouble with it's signature offering

Whopper Inflation.  Just like your money.  The words on the paper/package say the same old whopper but you just don't get as much.  The numbers and words on your money say the same old amounts but they just don't buy as much.

But its been going on everywhere.  Look at Panera, their salads and pastas are marginally smaller than they used to be.  Its inflation, they can either raise price or reduce product size or some of both.  Can we sue the govt for bad policy and inflation, probably not.  These frivolous lawsuits just cost everyone more, thus pile onto the inflation we already have.

Yeah, I should have been more clearer.  I was referring to the downsizing of our dollars and sense.

Just like real life.  People models look better than real life people.  Model Whoppers look better than real life whoppers.

Real estate agents are the biggest violator.

The dollar is certainly devalued and I'd say the sense on these here nonwrestling topics has gone down too.  Can we sue Bob?
