How the fuck are mcdonalds not going out of business.

Every day I see people complaining it's garbage food that costs more than actual restaurant food and every day they do more and more to jack up prices and lower value.

But I can't rember the last time I saw a closed McDonald's.

I think McDonalds owns a bunch of food and agro infrastructure that actually makes them the bulk of their profit, so as long at the brick and mortar stores are barely profitable or break even they can stay open.

Also they can let their franchise owners absorb some of the losses

exactly this, and for good locations the central office will own the land and if necessary just sell it or sit on it while the mcdonald's makes it look valuable
