    This is a lie and basic math will tell you so. If the food is already overpriced st county fairs then how can they justify raising it even more. My point being that if they were already selling you french fries for $9 that cost 1 dollar to produce. Something that every restaurant in the country sells you for 3 or 4 dollars. How is it that they need to raise the cost of an already over inflated price. What they are really saying is that they won't earn as much. But to say that they will not make a profit is ridiculous.

      @@vincec8218 Ha! $6.50 per gallon that's what I just paid for gas. $3.29 per gallon that's what I paid in 2019. Wow, you couldn't be more wrong.

      The fight for $15/hr put a big cost increase. It was probably a big mistake to give big pay raises right after a pandemic. There was already a stress on the system with supply chain problems.The pay increases should have been more spread out.

    Maybe instead of negative Nancy news, talk about how excited the hundreds of small businesses aka commercial exhibitors are to be reopen. Have positive Patty swing by for the interview.... come and give a demonstration at our booth this year? Would love a story where reporters become pitchmen for a day🎡🎠🤷‍♂️📹📽🎥
